Apex Legends Reveals Loot Box Odds in Stunning Detail

Oct 08, 2024 3:05 PM

Respawn has announced that in response to new regulations in South Korea, it will provide more detailed loot box drop rate information for Apex Legends. The developer will now disclose minimum drop rates for items in Apex Packs up to three decimal places, promoting transparency. These changes come as part of an effort to comply with the amended Korean Game Industry Promotion Act, which mandates clearer disclosure of loot box odds. However, it’s important to note that actual drop rates may differ thanks to duplicate protection, which increases chances as players acquire new items. Notably, Heirloom Shards will continue to be a guaranteed drop after opening 500 Apex Packs. Apex Legends is gearing up for Season 23, set to launch on October 29.
