Apex Legends may be a first-person shooter, but fans are always on the lookout for upcoming cosmetics, and a new leak that teases next week’s store rotation could help players save up for just the right skin.

Here’s the video that shows off all of the potential recolors that could come up next week:

Valkyrie is shown with her “Higher Learning” outfit, which will require the purchase of “Azure Blessing”, but it’s one of her most popular skins to date.

Similarly, players could see the return of fan-favorite Pathfinder skin “War Machine”. This is always a prized return, because the skin goes all the way back to Season 2’s Iron Crown collection event, and newer players could have a hard time waiting for this to come around again.

The leak actually includes a video too, which adds a few more legends that will be getting recolors and returning outfits. These include Lifeline’s “Blossom”, the “Checkered Frag” for Mirage or Rampart, and Crypto’s “Fuzzy Logic”.

Like Valkyrie, most of these outfits are recolors of an existing legendary skin, so you may need to save up some Apex coins to invest in the default variation.

Aside from legend skins, fans will also get another shot at purchasing the “Buried Treasure” weapon charm, which definitely lives up to its name by now. It was first introduced two years ago for the Lost Treasures event in Season 5.

Cosmetics have been a serious issue before, when the devs were unclear about the exclusivity of some of these items. Skins and charms have even seen a lot of backlash as poor replacements for real content.

But the game continues to thrive on these designs, and some of them are genuinely fun to have, especially if a collection theme fits your personal interests. And fortunately, the devs have recently been more transparent and productive, even reworking the entire ranked system.
