The Olympus Map rework is one of the things that the Season 12 Update brought to Apex Legends.
The rework changed several of the map's locations, giving the players of the multiplayer online battle royale several strategic options and chances to explore the map further.
One of the areas that received changes is the Icarus Bridge which has an area that has high-tier loot such as weapons, ammunition, regen items, attachments, a Mobile Respawn Beacon, and a Heat Shield. To access the area, players need to locate a Bridge Keycard.
How to Find the Bridge Keycard
To find the Bridge Keycard that will give them access to the Icarus Bridge, according to DBLTap, players need to enter the Icarus Ship first. According to Charlie Intel, the area is located in the southeastern part of the map.

Once they are inside, they see bodies scattered on the floor. They need to investigate the bodies until they find the Bridge Keycard.
After getting the keycard, according to Dexerto, it will be placed in their in-game Inventory, and the area where the Phase Driver is located will be marked on their map.
They need to run towards the area to collect the loot. However, they need to look out for other players waiting to steal a kill or trying to get the items in the area.
Other Updates in the Map
Another area included in Columbus's map are changes courtesy of Apex Legends' Season 12 Update is the Phase Driver.
According to a post on Electronic Arts' website, upon entering the area, they will activate it to phase in up to three loot rollers.
After activation, a Gold-Tiered ball is guaranteed to be dropped. They will need to wait for 45 seconds before activating the Phase Driver again for even more loot.
However, the activation will create a loud noise that might give their position away to other players in the surrounding area.
To make room for the new area, existing ones such as Solar Array, Icarus, and Bonzai Plaza have been pushed away from the center of the map without being destroyed.
Because of this change, the connection between them and the Orbital Cannon became more direct, while the latter did not feel as isolated anymore.
After the update, another area that was included in the map is the Terminal, a large interior POI that they can use as a new central routing area.
They can use its five entry points and elevated exterior platforms to engage in open areas around the Bonsai Plaza and Hammond Labs.
The Season 12 update also added a new entry point in the long hallway at the northeastern area of Olympus that connects the Turbine and the Rift.
This is to prevent a chokepoint that players use to trap their enemies while giving more combat options during multi-team standoffs when the final circle closes in the area.
