With Season 8 of Apex Legends now underway, we can turn our attention to the first event in the season.

Apex Legends' next Collection Event kicked off today, February 9!

If you weren't aware, the popular Battle Royale game turned 2 years old on the 4th of February 2021.

With a new update and the previous Fight Night update, we've been given plenty of hints as to what is coming thanks to dataminers.

Here's what we know about the Anniversary Collection Event in Apex Legends.

All the Iron Crown legendaries, apart from Wattson, will get recolors in the first Season 8 event.

According to @Shrugtal, the codename for these is "Eoswar". Suggesting, there is some war theme going on.

Wattson appears to be getting some form of recolor.

It looks like some weapons will also get a recolor...
