Battle Passes are common cause Apex Legends, and season 17 is no different. But every time a new season and its Battle Pass roll around, a simple question arises: is it worth it?

It’s the same question I have shortly after downloading a new season when I’m looking through the cosmetics on offer and wondering if I want to spend $10 on them. It’s only $10, after all, but when I’m looking through a Battle Pass from season to season, I wonder if I’m paying primarily for quantity or quality. Ten bucks is technically a bargain for all the different cosmetics you can earn in the game, but if I don’t use a single one, is it really a wise investment?

Arsenal, apex‘s Season 17 includes a cyberpunk-themed Battle Pass that transforms several of the game’s characters into high-tech androids and fighters. Players can obtain Ballistic, Wattson, Gibraltar, Lifeline, and Horizon skins by purchasing the Premium Battle Pass.

But should you?

Should you buy them Apex Legends Battle Pass Season 17?

Ultimately, we can’t tell you what to spend your money on. The most important thing about the Battle Pass is whether or not you want to support the game in the state it’s in right now.

Since Apex Legends is a free-to-play game, I usually buy the Battle Pass. There are usually at least a few skins I like, and it’s almost always worth unlocking the real prizes for completing the Battle Pass: reactive weapon skins, which are usually rare as Respawn has never brought an old one Reactive Battle Pass skin returns to the game in any way. This season’s skins are for the CAR SMG, which I don’t have a good skin for on my current account, so I mainly get the Battle Pass for those and a few emotes. I can afford to spend $10 and feel like it so I’ll do it.

The battle is over apex is nice too because if you complete it you will be rewarded with more than enough apex Coins to buy next season’s Battle Pass. If you play your cards right, you can effectively pay once for a Battle Pass and then unlock next season’s Battle Pass content for free just by saving your coins.

On the other hand if you are a long time apex Players who already have a bunch of cool skins and don’t like the direction the game has gone might not want to buy the Battle Pass at all. Your purchasing power is your direct line to Respawn and EA when it comes to supporting the game, and if you feel the game isn’t in good shape or you don’t see cosmetic items you like, in the clearest way can tell them not to buy the battle pass or other store skins.

The choice is yours, but if you’re a frugal player who still likes new skins and emotes every now and then, the battle is over apex is usually one of your best options.
