Apex Legends is nearing a major milestone, as Season 30, titled Marked, is just around the corner. The game might be over seven years old, but it’s fair to say it’s still going incredibly strong, with hundreds of thousands of players battling it out every single day.
To mark the occasion, some huge updates are on the way, including a rework to a fan-favorite Legend, Bloodhound. From an improved Passive to a completely overhauled Ultimate, he’s bound to feel just like a new addition, and you won’t want to miss it.
With that in mind, here’s when Season 30 of Apex Legends begins, including exact start times.
Apex Legends Season 30 will officially begin on August 4, 2026.
The Bloodhound rework is bound to grab most of the attention, but there’s a fair host of other additions on the way too. Rampart and Loba are seeing some buffs, with a reduced cooldown on the Black Market, as well as improvements to the Amped Walls.
Legends aside, World’s Edge is getting a fresh lick of paint, with new and updated POIs across the map. Then there’s the Energy Weapon overhaul, as well as the brand new Corrupted Attachments. They’re the strongest in class, but offer a unique trade-off to contend with—is the buff worth the nerf? You’ll be able to find out soon enough.
Apex Legends Season 30 Start Times
No official start time has been revealed, but judging by previous Apex Legends Seasons, it’s reasonable to assume that Season 30 should kick off at 11 AM PT.
There’s no denying that a new season is the most exciting time to play Apex Legends, with the changes to the meta always offering new and exciting ways to play.
