Apex Legends Season 23 “From The Rift” Update has been a surprisingly fun one, Respawn allowed players to experience the launch day of Apex Legends, and the cosmic/out-of-space theme battle pass really sets up the vibe of the whole season, as players grind towards their final tier of Battle Pass rewards or a specific skin they like, they also need to be reminded that ever since Season 11 all the battle pass skins are subject to return
In the Season 11 Blogpost Apex Legends added a ‘note’ in the FAQ section of the Battle Pass paragraph “These items may return in a future event or promotion (This applies starting with season 11 and onwards)” Apex Legends received lots of backlash from the casual community over this change, Many players complained that skins would lose their “Exclusivity” and many complained that grinding battle pass will not be worth it, but over the time players seem to have forgotten, and now with season 23 “From the Rift” Apex Legends has added a new pack category called “Retro Packs”
