Since Apex Legends has been a free-to-play game since its inception, Respawn Entertainment's main approach to monetization has been skins and cosmetics. The rarer a skin is, the more desirable it becomes to the players. As a result, some of them even end up spending an extra amount of money to secure these items in their account.
Skins have different rarities in the game, with Legendary being the rarest tier. Some of these skins are made available only once in the entire lifetime of the game, while others are brought back regularly via different events. Unlike some other games, these skins do not add any additional advantage to gameplay and are purely meant for cosmetic purposes.
