Apex Legends players angered as Legend Edition skins are resold in the store Respawn EntertainmentRespawn scrapped the official Legend dedicated versions of Apex Legends earlier this year \u2013 advertising the \u201clast chance\u201d to buy them \u2013 but it turns out the old skins are now being resold in the store, much to players\u2019 dismay. Once upon a time, Apex Legends players could purchase Legend-specific versions of the game. These included special skins for the Legend in question, as well as weapon cosmetics and a banner themed around the character\u2019s new look. Coming into Season 12, Respawn chose to remove these editions from the store despite only releasing the highly coveted Loba edition back in November, 2021. Despite many believing that their prized skins would be etched into the annals of history as limited edition ones, the 1.90 update has added Lifeline\u2018s Guardian Angel skin to the store pool, signaling that the old Legend Edition skins will be available for purchase once more, much to the ire of the game\u2019s community. Apex Legend edition skins return to the store Despite having removed the Legend editions coming into Season 12, Respawn have elected to offer the skins from the bundles in the in-game store for 1,800 Apex Coins (around $20). Legend Editions also used to be on sale for $19.99, but included Apex Coins, banners, icons, charms, and other in-game goodies within that price. Now, you only get the skin itself, a gun skin, and five Apex Packs.

Definitely \ud83d\udc4e, people spent money on those and more people spent money on those because they thought they were going away forever \u2014 HeadchefKlone (@headchefclone) March 2, 2022 Currently, only the Lifeline Edition skin has made a return, but it\u2019s expected that the others will be available in the store at some point too. One idea which could be floated in Apex is from League of Legends, where a new system was added that creates alternative versions of classic skins, which new players can buy, while keeping the \u2018OG\u2019 versions exclusive to the players that bought them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
