Following the recent launch of Apex Legends Season 9, two weeks ago, Apex Legends has now revealed their first exclusive skin of the season; the Punk Rocket Valkyrie skin. This black, red, green, and yellow cosmetic skin is now available to download if you have a Prime Gaming account.
The Apex Legends Valkyrie Skin – Punk Rocket
Apex Legends has long had an ongoing partnership with Prime Gaming, offering exclusive cosmetics (typically new skins) to subscribers. It’s no surprise that the first Season 9 skin should be for Valkyrie; when Apex Legends adds a new Legend, the first Prime Gaming exclusive of the season is typically a new skin for that new character. As per usual, this skin is available to download across all platforms. (Although users can typically only download the skin once, onto a single platform of their choice.)
Valkyrie’s Punk Rocket skin has a very different colour palette to her standard outfit, with black armour and a riotous jumpsuit of green, yellow, and red. Her jetpack and flight armour also have a more gritty, industrial aesthetic to them, thanks to the addition of highlighted studs and rivets across their many plates. Certainly, the outfit makes a very different kind of statement than the standard Valkyrie look, which is no doubt the intention of any exclusive skin.
To download the Punk Rocket skin, you’ll need to visit the Apex Legends page on Prime Gaming’s website. Here, you can claim the skin and download it to the platform of your choice. Obviously, you will need to have an active Prime Gaming subscription. (And must also have your Prime Gaming account linked to your Apex Legends account.) This is relatively simple to do if you haven’t already; instructions can be found on the same webpage. The Caustic Cold-Blooded skin – the last exclusive skin – is also still available to download. However, users should note that these skins are rarely available for very long, so Cold-Blooded is likely to become unavailable soon.
