Now that we have finally entered the festive season of the year, Apex Legends players are looking forward to the Christmas event, known as Holo-day Bash. Here are all the details on Season 11’s rendition of the event.

Apex Legends has had a lot of content in Season 11, most notably the new Legend Ash and map Storm Point.

This new content hasn’t stopped players from getting excited about the in-season events. Just recently the Season 11 Collection Event dropped, but what about Christmas?

Apex Legends Holo-day Bash

Every year Respawn Entertainment hosts its own Christmas event in Apex Legends called Holo-day Bash. The event usually brings new skins and a fan-favorite LTM called Winter Express.

The Season 11 Holo-day Bash event is set to bring something similar. However, Season 11’s Christmas event will be slightly different, as we will be seeing both Season 11’s Collection Event and the Holo-day Bash event combined into one.

When is the Apex Legends Holo-day Bash event?

Unfortunately, for those who were looking forward to seeing a purely Christmas-themed event, players will be getting something very different.

This year, Respawn has decided to combine the Raiders Collection Event with aspects of the Holo-day Bash event. So, the festivities will be launched in Apex at the same time as the launch of the Season 11 Collection Event.

The update will therefore be available December 7, around 10 AM PST / 1 PM ET / 6 PM BST. The event will end on December 21, so make sure you log in during this period to experience the Apex festivities!

Winter Express LTM

With the Raiders Collection event reveal, players learned that the Winter Express LTM would be returning. This is a round-based, limited-time mode that sees players battle it out for control of the World’s Edge train as it stops at various POIs.

Winter Express has returned every Holo-day Bash event, so it’s great to see it once again, even if there isn’t a fully-fledged Holo-day Bash event.

Festive skins

As we are getting the Raiders Collection Event, there won’t be any new festive skins dropping.

Having said that, there is a store takeover called the “Holo-day Store” that features Christmas-themed skins from the past. These include:

  • Gibraltar – Brudda Bear Bundle
  • Mirage – Wise Cracker Bundle
  • Caustic – Claustic Bundle
  • Bangalore – Stay Frosty Bundle
  • Crypto – Hack Frost Bundle

Each of these bundles is 50% off costing players 1,800 Apex Coins. they also come with a Charm and weapon skin. The weapon skins up for grabs are for the P2020, R-301, and R-99.

There hasn’t been any official announcement from Respawn, but there is potential for some of the Christmas skins to be sold. We’ll update this piece with more information as it comes out.
