Apex Legends Double Take patch notes

Quads and a collection event, that's bingo!

It’s about time for another collection event in Apex Legends, which comes in the form of Double Take. This means there will be 24 Double Take limited-time skins and cosmetics in the game, which players will work toward unlocking throughout the season.

As a breath of fresh air, Double Take cosmetics will be accessible via direct unlock alongside event packs when it starts on June 25. This allows players to single out their favorite cosmetics and only unlock their preferred ones in a non-RNG way in Apex Legends.

You’ll also get to show your new cosmetics to your friends more often this season as Quads mode debuts in the Double Take event, taking the place of Duos. Here are the patch notes for Apex’s Double Take event.
