Apex Legends has a three-part store with multiple currencies and rotating items. Below you will find this week’s items and a guide to the currencies and reset time of the Apex Legends store.

Of course, nothing comes close to the glorious feeling of a BR win, but what’s a win worth if you look like an amateur who just got lucky? With the right skins, you can show that you’re not a beginner, but have been at it for a really long time. And if you’ve been at it for a while, you may have already collected enough crafting metals and legend tokens to get some cool stuff completely free. So let’s take a look at what’s in the store this week!

Apex Legends Item Store: Special
The “Special” section of the Apex Legends store is rarely open, but when it is, you’ll find exclusive and limited offers here.

Legend Recolor Store
At the moment, the special section is dedicated to the Legend Recolor Store. Here you can find five Legends skins, and an upgrade for each (Recolors):

Apex Legends Item Store: Featured
This part of Apex Legend’s Store is the “Featured” section. Here you will find new – Season al items every week after the update.

This week in the Featured
This week we have 3 legends bundles, 1 holo and 2 weapon skins and 2 recolors.

Apex Legends Item Store: Item Packs
This part of the Apex Legends item store is for item packs. These are basically the random loot boxes in the game. You get three items, and you might get the legendary skin you wanted, or you might get nothing but junk, so at your own risk.

A single Apex Legendary Item Pack costs 100 Apex Coins (1 Euro), and here’s a breakdown of the likelihood of getting high-end loot:

Probability Rare Epic Legendary
Probability per pack 100% 24.8% 7.4%

Apex Legends Item Store: Mythics
In this part of the store you will buy high quality prestige skins for your characters and melee weapons from Heirloom. Prestige skins and Heirloom weapons are unique to each character and can only be purchased with Heirloom shards, but we’ll go into how to obtain Heirloom shards later in this article.

Prestige skins available this week
We get a prestige skin in the store every week. This week we have Bloodhound for 150 Heirloom shards:

When will the Apex Legends Store reset?
The Apex Store resets every week on Tuesdays at 21:00. This is when the weekly update takes place and you can usually expect bug fixes and balance changes to be implemented at the same time. So don’t worry, you won’t have to wait long for the new Loba skin you’ve been wishing for….

Apex Legends Currencies
In Apex Legends there are three main currencies that you can use to unlock new items and buy or craft cosmetics. Here you can see them in the game

There is also a very rare and exclusive currency called Heirloom Shards, but you won’t get very many of them. So let’s get to the three main currencies first.

Apex Coins
Apex coins are the premium currency that can be bought directly for real money. Apex coins are basically the same as V-Bucks, CoD Points, Riot Points or VP from similar games. Here you can see how much they cost and how much they would be worth in Legend Tokens:

Crafting Metals
Crafting metals are found in Apex packs and can be used to craft weapon and character skins. The best items you can craft cost a maximum of 2,400. Depending on the pack, you can expect the following number of crafting metals:

Common(Gray): 15
Rare (Blue): 30
Epic (Purple): 200
Legendary (Gold): 600

Unfortunately, crafting metals cannot be bought, neither with real money nor with Apex coins. You can only find them in packs.

Legend Tokens
Legend Tokens are a currency that you earn for free by leveling up, but can only be spent on buying new legends, repeating daily challenges, and unlocking new skin colors. Each level up earns 600 Legend Tokens, which means for every 20 levels we get 12,000 Tokens, which is just enough to buy a new Legend. Repeating daily challenges costs 200 Legend Tokens, and the prices for new skin colors vary.

Of course, Legend Tokens won’t buy you the coolest items in the game, but having a free currency to earn by playing is a nice addition to the game.

Heirloom Shards
Heirloom shards are a rare type of currency that can only be earned in Apex packs and occasionally through events. It can also only be spent in the Mythic section of the store, and once you’ve bought everything, you won’t be able to get Heirloom Shards either. The chance of finding Heriloom shards in packs is less than 1%, so you’ll be lucky if you get any at all.

What is actually… “Apex Legends?

Within 24 hours, “Apex Legends” became the most-watched game on Twitch – after one week, over 25 million people were already playing it. What is the battle royale shooter about?

What is “Apex Legends” about?

Scenario: In a distant future, bandits, adventurers, and outlaws settle their disputes in a sporting contest to the death. The setting is a fertile, industrially developed valley on the edge of the galaxy.

• Genre: Battle Royale shooter
• Game modes: survival battle between a maximum of 20 teams of three.

At its core, “Apex Legends” is a classic battle-royale shooter: up to 60 players land simultaneously in teams of three on the game map called “Kings Canyon” – a densely built-up, fertile valley with many accessible houses, bunkers and towers. Once on the ground, unarmed players must search their surroundings for equipment and ammunition. The goal of the game is to stay alive until the end.

To prevent players from hiding all over the map and waiting to automatically be the last one left, the game area shrinks every few minutes. The longer a round lasts, the smaller the area where survivors can move and hide.

Apex Legends refreshes this now classic game formula with some ideas that are unique to the genre: For example, before starting a round, players select one of eight heroes, each of which has two special abilities and facilitates certain play styles.

Bangalore, for example, is the classic soldier who can conceal her position with smoke grenades and call in an artillery strike in an emergency. The heroine Lifeline, on the other hand, can summon a drone to heal teammates – or directly order the delivery of high-value weapons and equipment via aerial drone. This way, all players can find the right hero for their preferred course of action.

How can I play Apex Legends?

Platform: “Apex Legends” is available for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.

Price: The battle royale shooter is a “Free to Play” title and can basically be played for free on all platforms.

In-game purchases: “Apex Legends” allows the purchase of cosmetic items and new heroes either by means of in-game currency, which can be earned for free in every round, or with real money. The real-money currency “Apex Coins” can be purchased in five different amounts: The smallest possible amount is 1000 Apex Points for around 9.99 euros, while the largest pack with 10,000 Apex Points content costs 99.99 euros.

The developer emphasizes that it is not possible to buy game advantages with the help of real money: You can only use it to customize the appearance of the heroes, it says, or purchase new heroes.

Age rating: “Apex Legends” does not have a youth rating (USK 18).

Which technical terms should you know?

Respawn Beacon: If a player is shot down, the team members who are still alive have the opportunity to bring the fallen comrade back into the game: Each eliminated player leaves behind a so-called Respawn Banner, which can be collected by the players of the own team and handed in at one of 28 Respawn Beacons, certain locations on the map. If this succeeds, the fallen player returns to the game.

Jumpmaster: At the beginning of the game, one of the maximum three players of a team always takes on the role of the jumpmaster. He decides when and where his team enters the game area.

Ping: Using the middle mouse button, players can alert their teammates to interesting locations in the game world or enemies. These pings are a valuable tool for communicating quickly and efficiently within the team.
