Players of Apex Legends Mobile could only play on the Worlds Edge map until now, but Kings Canyon has recently been added to the Apex Legends Mobile rotation. With Kings Canyon being available, let us get a walkthrough of the newest map added to the roster. With every possible High and Mid-tier loot spot in our knowledge, we will present the Hot zones and secret vault locations in the Kings Canyon Map, with the highest tier loot which can be found in Apex Legends Mobile.
In Apex Legends Mobile, loot is classified into five types:
- Common (denoted in Grey)
- Rare (denoted in Blue)
- Epic (denoted in Purple)
- Legendary (denoted in Yellow)
- Heirloom, which is of hidden rarity (denoted in Red)
Apex Legends Mobile locations have levels ranging from Basic to High Tier. Basic tier locations contain common weapons and items, while Medium tier locations contain weapons and items ranging from Common to Rare classes, with a small chance of finding an epic item or weapon.
High-tier locations contain weapons and items ranging from Common to Epic classes, with a small chance of finding a legendary item or weapon. When players drop on the map, they’ll see that destinations are colored differently. This symbolizes the color blue for mid-tier places and purple for high-tier ones. One must keep this in mind because location levels are sometimes randomly assigned.

A random spot on the map is assigned as a Hot Zone at the start of each match, denoted by a pulsing blue circle marker. This indicates that there will be higher quality loot and a probability of discovering a fully outfitted weapon in that region.
