A handful of skins and cosmetics have been leaked for an upcoming holiday-themed event in Apex Legends, believed to be the next ‘collection’ event.
With Season 3 of Apex Legends extended beyond the normal end date, all the way until February, it’s important for Respawn Entertainment to keep players engaged for longer, without a new season launch to look forward to.
With the first-ever holiday period coming up for Apex Legends, which launched in February 2019, it’s no surprise that there will be some Christmas-themed content on the way – after all, we already have snow on the new Season 3 map.
As data miners often scavenge through the game files after new updates though, the secrets of what is planned for the event have been leaked, with a host of skins and cosmetics revealed early.
So far, Christmas skins have been leaked for a number of the legends, and presumably, there is one for all eleven of them. Thanks to leakers @iLootGames and @That1MiningGuy, we have an up-close look at these leaked skins.

Mirage is actually rumored to be the centerpiece of this event, with a new location just for him, and he’s getting a nutcracker skin too.

Apex Legends winter cosmetics
This holiday cosmetic drop won’t just be skins either, as weapon charms and new character quips with winter themes have also been leaked.

Prolific data miner That1MiningGuy even leaked a complete look at upcoming cosmetics, as well as the ‘Winter Express’ train LTM mode that looks like it’ll be themed around Mirage.
Also confirmed from the game code was the name of the collection event, and how the items will be acquired.

There’s no date for the start of the event or when the cosmetics will be added, but we can safely presume it will be here in time for December 25 at the very latest.
