After the Fight Night Collection event update, data miners are combing the Apex Legends game files for details on future content. New details about the season 8 collection event, Anniversary, have been found, including new skins and an interesting change in family heirlooms.
With Apex Legends Season 7 now in its final months, players are looking forward to Season 8. We can expect to see the usual balance changes, game adjustments, bug fixes and cosmetics. A trusted Apex Legends hijacker has now released information about skins and inheritances.
Unlike previous collection events, the 8th season anniversary event will apparently add a new heritage. Instead, players who complete the collection will receive 150 Inheritance Fragments, to select a specific Inheritance from the current pool.
Here is everything we know about the leak from the Season 8 Anniversary Collection event.
Apex season 8 anniversary collection event
We may finally be able to take the Mirage trophy heritage.
According Shrutgal, a respectable Apex Legends leaker known for accurate leaks – the new season will include a birthday collection event. This event will allow Apex Legends players to purchase any previously released Inheritance of their choice if they complete the collection.
Collection events typically add a new heritage to the current set of cosmetics. But on this occasion, although you still need to spend enough Apex Coins / open packages to complete the collection first, this new event will give you the option of inheritance.
Season 8 will have the anniversary collection event.
The reward for completing the collection will not be a new inheritance, instead you will receive 150 fragments of inheritance to purchase an existing one of your choice.

The disadvantage is that it indicates that there will be no new family heirloom at the event. This does not mean that a new inheritance cannot come at another time during season 8. Potentially for Bangalore.
Apex Legends season 8 skins
As with all Apex Legends updates, Season 8 brings many new legends and weapon skins to the table. According to Shrutgal, all legends – except the three most recent – will receive a “birthday” recolor.
In addition, all Iron Crown legendaries, except Wattson, will receive colorings in the first event of season 8 and have been christened “Eoswar”. Although most of the game’s skins have no texture, you can see three of these skins below:

Of course, although these leaks come from a reliable source, it is usually best to handle it with a grain of salt.
After all, Respawn is known for changing things before the official release of each update. However, this upcoming birthday event can be huge for those who wish to get their hands on a specific cosmetic, or a skin that they may lose before in a new color.
