Hot Drops in Apex Legends is the latest addition to the game's store which lets you purchase skins at a discounted price. It is quite similar to Riot Games’ Night Market in Valorant which provided a cheaper route to acquire some of the best in-game cosmetics. However, it is important to note this feature is completely randomized for all players, and the items would differ for everyone.

With that being said, let us take a look at how you can get new skins in Apex Legends from Hot Drops in the store.

Here is a quick guide that you can use to get the exclusive skins included in Apex Legends Hot Drops:

  • Launch your game client and allow for any updates to download and install.
  • Turn on your game and head over to the main menu.
  • Click on “Store” and scroll to the topmost tab to access the Hot Drops store.
  • You will have to click on the cards individually to reveal all of the cosmetics.
  • You can then check the prices on the cards themselves and purchase the cosmetics you prefer.
  • You will need to recharge your wallet with enough Apex Coins to be able to purchase the skins from the store.

It is important to note that the Hot Drop store feature also has a timer present on top of the tab. This represents the time remaining for the cosmetics to shuffle into something different. This is a great opportunity for the player base to get their hands on different skins that would otherwise be costly to get directly from the store.

Moreover, fans can check out the recolors of existing skins in the store. If you already own the base version of the original skin, you can spend Legend Tokens to get the recolored cosmetic without spending a single dime. However, you will need to purchase the base variant of the skin before you can unlock the recolor. You can also choose to craft the skin and use Crafting Material.
