WELCOME TO E-DISTRICT
Discover the sixth map of the Apex Games, E-District—a densely packed urban island in the city of Suotamo on Gaea that has stood against the test of time. With blackouts, riots, and a chemical attack at Humbert Labs all in its history, this oasis of light has been cleaned, powered up, and transformed into a new location for your entertainment thanks to the generosity of the Syndicate.
E-District offers a complex array of inner-city environments across a threshold similar in size to World’s Edge. From never-ending sights while battling atop the luxurious high-rise apartments of The Lotus to engaging in intense combat within the Stadium's densely packed and repurposed arena neighborhood, this location offers diverse experiences with plenty to uncover and explore.
GRAVITY DEFYING TRAVEL
That’s right. Not a gravity cannon—a gravity launcher! Take a trip on one of these launchers for an exciting, strategic option that quickly covers short distances and easily reaches new elevated heights like rooftops. Incorporating these launchers into your experience isn’t just strategic, it also creates movement moments influenced by the surrounding environment, all while ensuring you and your squad maintain control over the dynamism.
UNIQUE RETREATS
E-District is your destination for a wide range of diverse environments and experiences. From tightly-knit urban layouts to expansive landscapes, catering to close-quarters, there’s something for everyone regardless of playstyle. Key features include multi-level buildings, rooftop-to-rooftop combat, street combat, open urban landscape combat, and interesting varied verticality. It’s an incredible adventure with so many points of interest to explore.
ENERGY BANK
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/energy-bank.png.adapt.320w.png)
Energy Bank is the heart of the Electro District, serving as its central energy source hub and visible from anywhere you visit. This massive tower offers only ground-floor access and close-quarters combat inside, transitioning to mid-to-long-range engagements outside. It serves as a loot-and-go point of interest due to its challenging defense.
THE LOTUS
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/the-lotus.png.adapt.320w.png)
This luxurious residence is reserved for the elite, catering to the wealthiest individuals. Enjoy breathtaking ocean views from the penthouses above or unwind in the lavish lobby lounge below. Featuring the tallest vertical playable area on the map, this location is designed for intense rooftop-to-rooftop combat and cat-and-mouse play through the verticality of the buildings. For the daring, utilize a gravity launcher to swiftly close the gap on your opponents across.
SHIPYARD ARCADE
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/shipyard-arcade.png.adapt.320w.png)
Where history and high scores collide! Once a bustling shipyard drydock, this distinctive venue has been reimagined into an extraordinary arcade experience. There is just one primary landing zone here, which is the arcade ship itself. However, don't be deceived; the nearby buildings and commercial stores offer ample loot for you to gather before launching an attack on the arcade. Be cautious of the ship's significant height advantage.
INDULGE IN THE NORTHWEST
BOARDWALK
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/boardwalk.png.adapt.320w.png)
Situated along the Northwest coastline, this location boasts stunning ocean views, lively attractions, and the district's most popular nightclub. Despite being the smallest point of interest on the map, Boardwalk offers an abundance of high-quality loot and can serve as a secure landing spot if you prefer to avoid immediate combat upon touchdown.
CITY HALL
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/city-hall.png.adapt.320w.png)
A beacon that once served as the center of local governance, its aims to efficiently and effectively address the community's needs and interests fell short with evidence of civil unrest throughout the area. Three buildings hold the bulk of the loot in this area and have a triangular combat dynamic with each other. You can loot, engage in firefights across the courtyard, or take the risk of crossing it to surprise your enemies.
RESORT
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/resort.png.adapt.320w.png)
Escape to paradise at this luxurious resort, where the serene beauty of nature meets unparalleled comfort and elegance. Nestled along the northwest of the map, this resort offers a perfect blend of CQC and medium-ranged combat.

REPRIEVE IN THE NORTHEAST
ELECTRO DAM

A cutting-edge hydroelectric power generation plant engineered to capture and convert the energy of flowing water into electricity. Engage in medium to long-range combat as you fight your way across the top of the dam. Although it's the furthest point on the map from the center, a gravity cannon at the bottom of the spillway ensures you can quickly get into the action.
GALLERIA
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/galleria.png.adapt.320w.png)

HEIGHTS

Heights seamlessly combine natural beauty with contemporary living. The tower at its peak presents a thrilling King of the Hill gameplay experience: dominate the rooftop to command the surrounding landscapes below. If you find yourself at the lowest elevation, use a gravity launcher or take the hidden pathway behind the waterfall to quickly reach higher ground.

HUMBERT LABS
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/humbert-labs.png.adapt.320w.png)
This agricultural supply company manufactures pesticides and is a sister site to the destroyed main labs in Zaldana City, Gaea. It has a rotating wall around three utility towers, overlooked by the interconnected facility rooftops that offer a height advantage. Choose a safer and longer interior route or a riskier but faster exterior path to traverse the POI.

For quick access to the rooftops, utilize the gravity launcher located on the central street.
STADIUM
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/stadium.png.adapt.320w.png)
Once an arena for prowler racing, the Stadium was converted by locals into a settlement, with residents drawing their energy from a zeppelin floating overhead. The area features intense close-quarter combat in the center, surrounded by 360-degree bleachers that provide a strategic height advantage.
LEISURE IN THE LIVELY SOUTHWEST
BLOSSOM DRIVE
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/blossom-drive.png.adapt.320w.png)
Blossom Drive combines natural charm with urban elegance, bordered by tranquil canals. Known for upscale shopping, it boasts high-end boutiques and designer stores with exclusive merchandise. The area is unique for its spacious building layout. Choose the risky on-foot journey to the buildings, use a gravity launcher, or take interconnecting ziplines to cover the distance quickly.
DRAFT POINT
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/draft-point.png.adapt.320w.png)
The once peaceful working-class settlement along the canals was disrupted by the mega fan wall, built to expel pollution from the Energy Bank's electricity generation. Draft Point is a popular landing spot for those looking for quick access to the central area, Energy Bank. Gear up and rotate through the mega fan, or stay and engage in a showdown with the neighboring working-class settlement.
NEON SQUARE
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/neon-square.png.adapt.320w.png)

VIADUCT
![](https://media.contentapi.ea.com/content/dam/apex-legends/common/articles/welcome-to-edistrict/viaduct.png.adapt.320w.png)
This massive structure, en route to the district exit, was repurposed by locals into a multi-level settlement. Battle your way through various levels, exploring numerous houses to gather loot.
