When is the Anniversary Collection event?
To celebrate the two year anniversary of Apex Legends, theAnniversary Collection Event will start on August 14, 2025.
The Anniversary Collection Event is expected to start at 10AM PT / 1PM ET / 6PM GMT. There will be no update required, as it’s just a playlist update in-game, meaning you won’t have to wait for any long downloads.
The event will end on February 23, meaning you have exactly two weeks to grind through it and unlock as much as possible.
Anniversary Collection event trailer
Here’s everything we know about the Season 8 Anniversary Collection event.
Season 8 Anniversary Collection event
Apex Legends Anniversary skins
Just like with every Apex Legends update, Season 8 is bringing plenty of new Legend and weapons skins to the table. All Legends – except the three most recent – will be getting an “Anniversary” recolor.
By unlocking the collection items, you will get 150 heirloom shards, to spend on an heirloom of your choice.
Respawn said: “We’re bringing back 24 fan-favorite items and giving them a fresh look with crimson red and gold touches. If you’ve missed out on a skin you really wanted in the past, now’s the time to snag it, but with a new look that lets others know you were here in the early days of Apex Legends. ”
These are just some of the skins coming in the event:
Revenant Blood Ritual Legendary
Gibraltar Golden God Legendary
Wraith Hellcat Legendary
Bangalore Fire with Fire
Wattson Rocket Scientist
Loba Red Handed
Anniversary Collection Event Heirloom
Unlike previous collection events, the one will not add a new Heirloom to the mix. Instead, players who complete the 24-part collection will be granted 15o Heirloom shards – enough to purchase a single Heirloom from the store.

Challenges
There’s some unique challenges coming as part of the event too:
Also, snag the “Mozambique Here” Weapon Charm by dealing 3,333 Damage with everyone’s favorite weapon to ping, the Mozambique. The Locked and Loaded takeover may help with this one.
Locked and Loaded takeover
The event will add the Locked and Loaded LTM as a takeover mode.
“In “Locked and Loaded”, hit the ground with a full loadout of level 1 gear. You’ll have a Mozambique, White Shotgun Bolt, HCOG Classic Scope, White Evo Shield, White Helmet, White Backpack, White Incap Shield, two Syringes, two Shield Cells, and one stack of shotgun ammo. What more could you possibly need, right?
All Common/White level attachments and equipment will also be removed from the loot pool (outside of Common scopes) during the takeover. Drop in and knock ’em out!”
