Apex Legends update 2.05 (September 20) patch notes: New Collection Event, additional quality-of-life improvements, and more

Apex Legends finally got a 2.05 update earlier today, September 20, 2022, for all regions and supported platforms.

One of the biggest highlights of the patch is the new Collection Event, which has made its way to the live servers. The event is called the Best of Prey and has a good deal of additional content that players will be able to try out.

Apart from the event, the patch has also introduced a significant number of quality-of-life changes as well as bug fixes and balance updates that will be ironing out some of the rough edges.

Additionally, the new 'Gun Run' game in Apex Legends will allow players to go head-to-head with three other teams. Each kill a player gets with a weapon will allow them to advance to the next weapon. The team that progresses through the most weapons by the end of the match will be crowned the winner.

Apex Legends fans who are looking for a more detailed description of the patch can look up the shooter’s official website. However, for a brief overview, here are all the major highlights.
