Why is Respawn releasing past battle pass/collection event skins?

I’ve been playing since day 1, bought every season battle pass and nearly every single collection event so I’ve unlocked a ton of different cosmetics badges and other neat things.

I recently checked out the Legendary Bundle in the store and noticed they are selling more rare skins only obtained through the battle pass of season 2 and 3 I think. Jade Tiger Octane, and Prince of Darkness Caustic. That’s pretty low to bring back battle pass items to sell at a future time. 

I know somethings should be released again such as Holiday themed cosmetics cause holidays repeat every year, but limited time things such as collection events and battle pass items are just a slap in the face for people that earned them back in the earlier days of the game or bought them because they were “limited”

Now I have to wonder are season 1 skins like the Tier 100 battle pass items going to be released again or all the other collection event items?

Unlike Call of Duty, and Fortnite, I’d rather see Apex actually keep their rare items rare.

  • @AchingStew99 I started Apex from season four and I don't want to buy things that belong to before this season or see them in the store. Those things must stay special.
  • @AchingStew99 I'm not sure what bundle your looking at, but in my game it's still the new year's sale. It's only the wraith recolor, and old ways event bundles. Battle pass skin will never make a return, as for event skins the devs have stated that every event skin will return eventually theyv made it very clear. People who bought them have had their time of having these skins rather than others now other people get their chance.
  • @DK9027 The pack I’m talking about is the Legendary Edition. Has 2 earlier battle pass legendary skins in it.
    I don’t mind if anything they release collection events at some point as much as I love my iron crown collection and rare Wattson skin.
    But battle-pass and season rewards shouldn’t be given out again for any reason.

    @AchingStew99 I tried looking for the legendary edition but couldn't find it anywhere the only thing that comes up is the champion edition. Do you have a picture of it?

    @AchingStew99 All games do this as the population starts to die off. PUBG definitely did. This is called milking the population as much as possible before the game dies. The game has just entered that part of it's lifecycle much faster than most games. Judging by how Titanfall went expect much more of this soon.

    @Acumental I constantly see you on here calling every season the last cause apex is just done for, I dont know what your vendetta is against this game, but it's not going to die for a very long time.

    @AchingStew99 I think I've figured out what's going on. The champion edition is what I think your looking at, this edition unlocks all legends when bought if you already unlocked that legend and have a skin equipped then that skin will be displayed on that legend. For example I had a look at it and I have a skin equipped for caustic (an unlockable legend) I have a skin equipped for him from when the game first launched called "off the grid." When I hover over the caustic icon in this edition I see caustic with the off the grid skin equipped to him.
  • @DK9027 Yep, yet again he gets on here to talk * and then doesn't respond when called out. Either a little kid, or a sorry old man.
  • It’s because EA/Respawn want more money... so new players coming in can just go ahead and spend that cash to get allllllll the goodies from previous seasons.
