The Apex Legends x Cyberpunk limited-time crossover event is scheduled to launch on July 14, 2026 at 6pm BST across all major platforms, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC, Nintendo Switch 2, and last-generation consoles. The event will go live simultaneously worldwide, with no early access available.
For players in different time zones, the start times are as follows: Los Angeles at 10am PDT, New York at 1pm EST, London at 6pm BST, Paris at 7pm CEST, Dubai at 9pm GST, Tokyo at 2am JST on July 15, Sydney at 3am AEST on July 15, and Wellington at 5am NZST on July 15.
Event Content and Map Changes
The event introduces an overhauled version of the E-District map, inspired by Cyberpunk's Night City. The map features neon lighting, holographic koi fish, and a cyberpunk aesthetic. A new Wildcard event will also go live, introducing two Cyberware-inspired mods: Sandevistan and Blackwall Breach.
According to an EA press release, Sandevistan grants quick dashes in any direction, allowing players to chain two dashes before touching the ground to close gaps or evade danger. Blackwall Breach phases the player into the Net to reposition, then unleashes a disruptive EMP upon returning.
Cyberpsycho Mechanic and Immunoblocker Syringes
A new mechanic called Cyberpsycho will be active during the Wildcard event. As players equip more mods, a meter fills up. When maxed out, players gain faster movement speed and massive melee damage but cannot use weapons, shields, or abilities. To manage the meter, players can use Immunoblocker Syringes found around the map.
Cosmetic Items
The event includes a Mythic Alternator skin modeled after Cyberpunk's Skippy weapon, an Arasaka Epic Valkyrie skin, and a Kang-Tao Epic Mirage skin. Additional cosmetics are expected for Legends such as Axle, Sparrow, Lifeline, Crypto, Rampart, Loba, and Ash. Weapon skins are also planned for Gibraltar, Wingman, Charge Rifle, Mastiff, L-STAR, P2020, RE-45, R-301, and Kraber.
