Apex Legends: All Legends + Skills

What is a Legend in Apex Legends?

In Apex Legends, the playable characters are called Legends. Moreover, each Legend has their own ability set and skills which can help players emerge as the Champion after each match.

Although Apex Legends is free-to-play, you need to spend Legend Tokens or Apex Coins to unlock Legends you want in the game. Each Legend costs 12,000 Legend Tokens or 750 Apex Coins to obtain.

If you aren’t planning on spending, you can earn Legend Tokens by leveling up and completing quests. However, Apex Coins require you to spend real money. But you can also purchase Skins from the in-game store with Apex Coins.

Every time there is a new Season in Apex Legends, the game also introduces a new Legend to the roster.
