Apex Legends Battle Pass Explained
Apex Legends has followed in the footsteps of its successful competitor, Fortnite, in adding a Battle Pass for players to purchase. With it comes new weapon skins and various rewards to earn through gameplay. So what will you get in the battle pass and how much is it? Find out everything you need to know right here with DigiZani!
Apex Legends Battle Pass Season 1 - Wild Frontier
For those familiar with the battle pass offered by Epic Games for Fortnite: Battle Royale, you will notice the similarities in its structure. The first season, known as Wild Frontier, will offer rewards for all players and then another 100 rewards for those who buy the battle pass. These premium rewards are earned every level you progress (one per level). You pass through the levels by earning Battle Pass XP within the game.
Remember, your Battle Pass XP is separate to your account level in Apex Legends. The XP you earn for both will be similar and rewarded similarly on both. Just play the game and earn your points!
Wild Frontier Season Details
Wild Frontier is the name given to Season 1 of Apex Legends and it started on Tuesday 19th March 2019. Aside from the introduction of the battle pass, the only new addition is the character of Octane.
Other than Octane’s arrival, themed skins that match the junkyard aesthetic with orange-yellow colours are added. There’s also a tonne of badges and trackers for you to add to your on-screen profile.
Apex Legends Battle Pass Tiers
This is a breakdown of the three levels of Battle Pass available in Apex Legends:
- Free - You level up but only access the free rewards on offer. For example, if you reach level 48, you will earn the Wild Frontier Legend Skin without purchasing the pass. Free rewards on offer include 5 Apex Packs and 18 Wild Frontier Stat Trackers.
- Battle Pass Rewards - 950 Apex Coins. Players are granted access to all 100 rewards. One reward each level rewarded as you unlock them. The free rewards for each level are also included.
- Battle Pass Bundle - 2,800 Apex Coins. This unlocks a whole 25 levels instantly, whatever level you are at. For example, you could buy this at level 75 and boost immediately to 100.
The pass is available only through the game’s online store by getting Apex Coins. As you level up, the game will offer Apex Coins as a reward for your progression. This means it is possible to earn enough coins to purchase the Season 2 pass - you will earn 1,000 coins by progressing through.
You can earn the rewards of the Battle Pass even if you don’t purchase it immediately. As the game rewards you with XP for both, you can purchase the pass at Level 30 and earn every single reward to that point.
Much like Fortnite, rewards for this season are exclusive to Season 1 and cannot be purchased anywhere else.
