Like many battle royale games, Apex Legends boasts a number of sprawling maps filled with secrets – so many secrets that, in some cases, players believe them to be Easter eggs. One Apex Legends player in particular recently discovered a tunnel concealed in a map that came out with the game.

It appears that the tunnel has been present since the game was first released, but it seems to have been overlooked by many players, many of whom reacted with shock and confusion when Redditor Sametg73 shared a video of themself discovering the tunnel. With a new Apex Legends map recently leaked, it may be nice to see that the old maps can still surprise even experienced players.

The map in question is Kings Canyon, a sprawling map located on the planet Solace that features a wide variety of environments. Players can conceal themselves in military facilities, slums, swamps, cliffs, or near the river dividing it down the center, and also in the tunnel, apparently, though this seems to have come as a surprise to many. Apex Legends players are known for their skill and creativity, so it may interest gamers that this tunnel has been overlooked. However, it may begin to make sense when one realizes that the swamps area is often overlooked in general and the tunnel doesn't immediately serve any purpose other than hiding loot bins.

In the video, Sametg73 wanders down the tunnel, which is visibly old and worn. Plants poke up through the floor, roots cling to the walls, and the lighting consists of what appear to be sci-fi mining light bulbs. There are no other players in the tunnel, and in fact, no other players are sighted throughout the video, suggesting that Sametg73 made this discovery while alone. Several parts of the Kings Canyon have been removed or tweaked, like other Apex Legends features, but the tunnel has reportedly been left untouched since the game's launch.

It appears that responses are mixed between players who also had no idea the tunnel existed and players who knew about the tunnel and are shocked that others didn't. Several users posted hoping that the tunnel and the associated swamps area remain untouched by Respawn Entertainment's tendency to tweak parts of the maps. Another user wondered if the devs had forgotten about the tunnel. One user noted that they discovered the tunnel after it was mentioned in patch notes as a "secret loot cave" in the Kings Canyon map.

Apex Legends is available now for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
