Apex Legends' long-awaited anime-themed Gaiden event is finally here, and with it comes a collection of 40 unique cosmetics based on various anime series including Dragon ball, Fullmetal Alchemist, My Hero Academia, Naruto, Neon Genesis Evangelion, One Piece, Tokyo Ghoul, and Tuxedo Mask, among others. Those who collect all 40 cosmetic items will unlock Bangalore's new Apex Commander Prestige skin.
In addition to the 40-item thematic event collection, there are also several free cosmetics available via the event's free rewards track, which can be unlocked by completing event challenges. The cosmetics included in the free rewards track are:
- Bionic Buddy weapon charm (Epic)
- Cloudburst 30-30 Repeater weapon skin (Epic)
- Down Thunder Fuse skin (Epic)
- Okay holospray (Epic, available during week two of the event)
Finally, the in-game store will have several exclusive items and bundles on sale during the Gaiden event. Week 1 will include:
- Marked Man Mirage Bundle (contains the Legendary skin in addition to 10 Gaiden Thematic Packs) - 4,000 AC
- Oak Thump Charge Rifle Bundle (containes the Legendary skin in addition to 5 Gaiden Thematic Packs) - 2,500 AC

The Loba Edition Bundle will also be for sale during the first week of the event. It costs 1,800 AC and contains the following items:
- Legendary Arms Dealer Loba skin
- Legendary Silver Lining 30-30 weapon skin
- Legendary Quartermaster Andrade Badge
- Epic Fractal Wolf weapon charm
- 5 standard Apex Packs
The Marked Man Bundle and Oak Thump Bundle will both be available second week of the event, but the other cosmetics will be swapped out for the following items:

The Gaiden Thematic Event will run until August 2, and all premium cosmetic items will become permanent additions to the loot pool once the event is over, meaning they can be unlocked via Apex Packs or crafted with crafting metals, albeit at a much higher price than most craftable items. After two seasons, the cost to craft these cosmetics will decrease to the standard amount of crafting metals required to craft items of the same tier. After the conclusion of the event, Bangalore's Prestige skin will enter the Mythic store, where it can be crafted using the same Heirloom Shards players use to craft Heirloom weapons.
For players who are really looking to get into character, Respawn has released a free set of downloadable VTuber avatars featuring Octane, Mirage, and Bangalore in their Gaiden event skins.
Apex Legends is free to play on console and PC. A mobile version of the game, Apex Legends Mobile, is available for download on Android and iOS devices.
