Apex Legends data miners have revealed some of the new cosmetics coming in the unannounced Aftermarket collection event – including an incredible looking skin for Loba.
With Apex Legends Season 6 finally here, fans of Respawn’s battle royale have been able to get to grips with the new legend in Rampart, the World’s Edge fortified map, and the new Volt SMG.
Though there is plenty of new content in the season, some fans are already looking to the future and what’s on the horizon – especially when it comes to an all-new collection event.
Data miners have already been able to get their hands on the name of the new event, which is called Aftermarket, and have gone deeper and find a few more details.
That includes reliable leaker Shrugtal who, after finding the name and possible start date of September 15, managed to find a whole host of new cosmetics.
The biggest of which, that they were able to find, was a new skin for Loba. There’s no real name for the skin but in the image that the leaker provided, she’s wearing a black, light blue, white, and purple outfit.
But, the colors aren’t just static, they’re active. They glow and flow around the Translocating Thief’s outfit as she moves around.

On top of that, the leaker also revealed two new weapon skins – one for the Triple Take sniper rifle and another for the Longbow.
Like the Loba skins, they both have animations when you equip them in-game, however, the leaker didn’t reveal those in their posts.

As well as Shrugtal’s leaks, Biast12 also revealed that a music pack was also found in the files with the Aftermarket name attached.
Sadly, though, they can’t be accessed just yet so there’s no early indication of what new tunes you’ll be descending into the games listening to.

In addition to those, Shrugtal also noted that there were six new unused skin names added to the files that they suspect to be for the collection event. Though, that is unconfirmed.

There are also strings of code for a Caustic heirloom which had been leaked previously alongside one for Bangalore.
With the collection event on the horizon, we’ll just have to see what Respawn has cooked up in the form of additional cosmetics.
