Apex Legends Season 1 begins

Respawn and EA have announced that the inaugural season of Apex Legends starts now, and includes new Legends, unique rewards, and the first Battle Pass.

Season 1 Wild Frontier kicks off with the arrival of new legend hero Octane. He never has to slow down with his unmatched speed and self-heal, and his Launch Pad Ultimate Ability lets him take down his opponents from above. He can be unlocked via 12,000 Legends Tokens or 750 Apex Coins in the game.

The Wild Frontier Battle Pass is also available now for 950 Apex Coins. Every level gained unlocks another level in the Battle Pass and the rewards that come with it. This season, players can earn over 100 items like Legend skins, Apex Coins, a legendary Havoc skin, and more. Players can also get the Battle Pass Bundle, which instantly unlocks the Battle Pass and the first 25 levels of the 100 available in Season 1, for 2,800 Apex Coins.

Apex Legends is a free to play squad-based battle royale experience. Players will select from one of eight Legends – each with their own unique abilities and playstyles – and the last team standing wins. The game is out for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.
