Apex Legends' Skull Town POI back with a twist in Season 14 update

It's safe to say that fans of Respawn Entertainment's free-to-play battle royale shooter Apex Legends have been waiting a long time to see the return of Kings Canyon's iconic Skull Town POI.

Now, though, after all these long months, it's finally back. Skull Town has returned to Kings Canyon in Apex Legends' Season 14 update - but, there's one huge twist.

What is this huge twist we're talking about? Well, the Skull Town POI we all know and love from Apex Legends' earlier seasons isn't returning exactly as it left. In fact, it's going to be different enough that Respawn Entertainment has decided to give it a brand new name: Relic.

Now, we know what you're thinking... Is this new Relic POI really the same as Kings Canyon's Skull Town POI if they have completely changed the name of it? Well... No, of course it's not the same.
