Apex Legends Uprising Collection Event Guide: Every Cosmetic, Loba Prestige Skin & More
Everything you need to know for Apex Legends Uprising Collection Event: Loba Prestige Skin, Kill Code Uprising, Revenant Army and Every Cosmetic Skin
- The Apex Legends Uprising Collection Event runs from December 5th 2023 until January 2nd 2024.
- Players who collect all 24 Limited-Time Cosmetics will unlock Loba’s Prestige Skin, the Apex Lycanthrope.
- The Kill Code Uprising Limited-Time Mode will only be available on the weekends for players to join after the first week.
Uprising is the first Collection Event for Season 19 Ignite in Apex Legends and it features a lot more than players may be used to from past Collection Events and it will run for twice the usual duration. Fans of Apex Legends can expect the usual 24 limit-time cosmetic items, which if collected will unlock an heirloom-level cosmetic, Loba’s Apex Lycanthrope Prestige Skin.
The event also comes with a new limited-time mode that after the first week, will only be available on weekends. But this LTM represents the culmination of the Kill Code narrative arc that began with Revenant’s Rebirth in Season 18 Resurrection. There’s even more to find in the Uprising Collection Event, everything you need to know including the all new limit-time skins is right here.
Kill Code: Uprising LTM
The Limited-Time mode in the Uprising Collection Event is the most unusual part of the entire event. Respawn putting Limit-Time Modes in during Collection Events is par for the course, but to limit them to specific times is a new approach.
Players can play the Uprising LTM for the first week from December 5th to the 11th at 10 am PT. After that, it will be available for the following dates and times.
- December 15th 11am - December 18th 10am PT
- December 22nd 11am - December 25th 10am PT
- December 29th 11am - January 1st 10am PT
In the Kill Code: Uprising LTM players are divided into one of two teams; the Legends Alliance or the Revenant Army. It’s a 30 v 30 battle, but while the Revenant Army are trying to kill the Legends, the Legends are trying to escape.
Get to the extraction point before the Revenant Army overwhelms you.
One location on the map will be marked as the extraction point and the Legends must get to it and survive long enough for 6 of them to be extracted. So what’s the catch? Every time a team is completely wiped out by the Revenant Army, they become part of it.
Luckily, respawn beacons around the map can be used to respawn everyone who has been finished by the Revenant Army so long as at least one member is still alive. You respawn with your weapons and armor just like in normal battle royale.
Most of the Revenants are of a simple variant and can only melee attack, but they hit hard. Beware of the Red Eyed Revenant who spawns with red evo shields and red tier weapons.
Uprising Collection Event Cosmetics
There are 24 cosmetics that players can buy or craft that will unlock the Loba Prestige Skin if players can get them all. The designs in this Collection Event are some of the best seen in recent seasons, with even the epic rarities having top-tier designs.
Legendary Legend Skins include: Valkyrie, Gibraltar, Ballistic, Vantage, Bangalore and Bloodhound.
Legendary Weapon Skins include: Charge Rifle, Triple Take, Wingman, Flatline, Havoc and the Peacekeeper.
The other cosmetics include a purple rarity epic for Seer, Mirage and Mad Maggie, the L-Star, CAR LMG, Spitfire and 6 banner frames.
Unlocking all of these cosmetics is the only way to get the Loba Prestige Skin for the duration of the Uprising Collection Event. If players can wait until after the event ends, they can still purchase the skin for 150 Heirloom Shards.
Uprising Collection Legend & Weapon Skins
Loba Prestige Skin
Each season brings with it a Collection Event with a brand new Prestige Skin and Loba is the lucky Legend for the Uprising Event. The skin is called the Apex Lycanthrope and features Loba’s evolving skin into a Titan-pilot suit that looks like a white wolf, a nickname Loba often uses to refer to herself.
Her custom dive-trail is a helix-patterned, blue trail that unlocks at the second level and requires 30,000 damage on Loba to do. Her third tier comes with a unique legendary finisher and unlocks at 100,000 damage.
Overall, Loba’s skin is one of the best in the game, but her finisher is perhaps one of the more disappointing ones. In it, Loba reveals long, energy-charged claws in her Prestige Skin that she sinks into her target before they explode into dust and ash.

Legend Perks, Free Reward Track
The final part of the Uprising Collection Event in Apex Legends is the new free reward track and what it may be teasing for the future of the game. Normally the reward track gives Apex Packs, crafting materials, banners, and a weapon and legend skin.
With this collection event, most of those are gone, but there are a few including a R-99 and Octane skin in the last two weeks. But the bigger change is the perks players can unlock for the week that becomes active in the non-ranked battle royale mode.
For week one, as an example, players can earn the ability to see ordnance, such as thermite grenades and arc stars through walls, called grenadier sight. They can also unlock the grenadier sling and carry one extra grenade in each inventory slot.
If you’re thinking that sounds a lot like Fuse’s passive ability, you’re right. The Apex Legends Dev at Respawn seem to be testing out the idea of Legend Perks, which the Mobile Apex Legends had, during the Uprising Collection Event.
It’s not the first time they’ve done something like this as the evolving Evo Shields were tested in an event before they were implemented fully into the game.
Overall, the Uprising Collection Event is bringing a lot to the players for the week of December. It’s the longest and most ambitious Collection Event yet. But it’s not something that the developers at Respawn are going to be able to keep up when they roll out three collection events every season.
If Uprising is a hit with players, Apex Legends may be setting itself up for failure when it rolls out the next Heirloom recolor collection event and offers nothing to players but a single palette-swapped recolor.
