In a battle royale video game like Apex Legends, there are two things that attract players; getting good and getting free stuff. With the Treasure Pack system that was introduced back in Season 5 with Loba, Respawn Entertainment basically added in a log-in reward system.
Here is everything you need to know about Treasure Packs in Apex Legends and how to get the most out of the system:
Treasure Packs are a lootable item with mythic quality, despite being surprisingly common, that you can currently only find in the battle royale mode of Apex Legends. You can find them by opening up supply bins around the maps, but you can only loot one of them a day.
Looting these treasure packs will unlock a free reward at the end of the match for you that can range from an Apex Loot Pack, to Crafting Materials or XP Stars for the Battle Pass.
The Treasure Pack system in Apex Legends is kind of a glorified log-in rewards system, but it's not as simple as just logging in. You do need to queue up for a match and seek them out, but they're very easy to find if you're just playing like normal.
Every supply bin you open has a chance to pop out a Treasure Pack. You can also loot them through Loba's Black Market Ultimate Ability if they're within range. It takes 45 Treasure Packs throughout the season to get the final rewards and since there are around 90 days in a three-month season you have more than enough time to collect them all.
The Treasure Packs in Apex Legends can get you a ton of different rewards for collecting them.
In the past, they've also awarded gun charms and special comic pages, or text-only stories that pertain to the current season. The gun charms were always the exact same model but with different skins. As of Season 17 Arsenal, when Ballistic was introduced, the comics and text-only stories were replaced with static images from Ballistics launch trailer and a general recap of his story.
If you're playing regularly, you shouldn't have to worry about missing out on any Treasure Packs in Apex Legends. There are normally 45 to collect in a season and the season lasts three months, so there is no rush to collect them all.
If, however, you do miss out on a few and need to play catch up at the end of the season, you can buy individual packs for 25 Apex Coins each and still get the rewards.
