On January 26, Highguard's big launch day on PC and consoles, the devs quietly made a small but very interesting change to the game's store page on Steam. Highguard's original Steam description said this: From the creators of Apex Legends and Titanfall, comes Highguard: a PvP raid shooter where players will ride, fight, and raid as Wardens, arcane gunslingers sent to fight for control of a mythical continent.

This season's rework for Olympus focuses on verticality and airborne action. Four new points-of-interest have been added, each embracing Olympus's anti-gravity nature in its own unique way. Somers University, Gravity Engine, Stabilizer, and Dockyard are all designed to get players into airborne firefights and moving around the map faster. Somers University replaces Orbital Cannon and adds high-flying lifts to Olympus, while Gravity Engine replaces Energy Depot with a zone full of high-altitude zip rails.

The introduction of the new Legend Sparrow enhances gameplay dynamics with abilities like Double Jump, Tracker Dart, and Stinger Bolt, redefining mobility and strategy.
