As we have reported, the first season of Apex Legends – Wild Frontier – has begun (you must have known it by now if you are not coming out from a cave). The patch notes for the first season has also been released. The highlight of the first season is the new character Octane and the battle pass.

The battle pass for season one will cost you 950 Apex Coin, which is roughly about 10USD. However, despite all the hype for the battle pass, it received quite a lot of criticism from the community as the players calm that it doesn’t offer as many rewards as they expected.

However, Respawn Entertainment does not let us down that easily. Besides quickly releasing a blog to further explain about the season one battle pass, they also put inside a reward for any players that complete 100 levels of the first battle pass of Apex Legends

If players can finish all 100 tiers of this first Battle Pass, they will be given enough Apex Coins as rewards to buy the next Battle Pass of the game when it becomes available (highly likely the battle pass for season two).

This information was confirmed in a Reddit comment by JayRespawn.

With 1,000 Apex coins, players can buy many characters and gun skins, as well as many other cosmetic items in Apex Legends. But the wisest investment would be using that money to buy the battle pass ticket of the season two.

The Battle Pass is still certainly a good deal, just not as good as we hoped. Even so, the bright side of this battle pass is that you might never have to buy one again.

After all the wait, the first season of Apex Legends has finally arrived. This season one – named Wild Frontier – will bring to the player a new character – Octane – and the battle pass for the game. For more about the patch notes of the first season, check here.

However, shortly after the hype for Apex Legends battle pass fades away, the players start showing disappointments for the battle pass. As they have spent some time reading carefully about the challenges and the rewards for the battle pass of season one, many Apex Legends gamers pointed out that this battle pass did not meet their expectation.

Many of these complaints addressed that this battle pass’ content do not bring enough entertainment for the players: too many badges and tracker rewards but not many legendary skins at high levels of the battle pass. And if you take a closer look, a lot of the character and weapon skins were quite uninteresting, with plenty of browns and dark greens color. Some players even pointed out that the challenges in this season 1 battle pass are not as challenging as those in Fortnite.

If you are still not sure why this incident rises, the meme below will tell you the reason why:

However, Respawn Entertainment once again has proved that they are a great developer who knows how to listen to their players. Shortly after releasing the first season changes and the patch notes for the first season, Respawn Entertainment has also published a blog – named Battle Pass Season 1 Philosophy – to further explain about the season 1 battle pass.

The above reference in the blog for a quest mentioning in the blog is likely a gentle comparison to Fortnite’s quests in its battle passes. It’s impossible to say exactly the challenges in each game are too hard or too easy for players. However, with this explanation of Respawn Entertainment, perhaps we can still keep our hopes up for battle passes in the next seasons of Apex Legends. And by completing this season one battle pass, players can gain high chances for a free battle pass in season two.

It's worth mentioning that the very first Fortnite battle pass was even more terrible, compared to what Epic Games is currently producing for their Fortnite players. In the first battle pass of Fortnite, there were only 70 levels, a few exciting skins, and no additional challenges. Hard to say the first battle pass of Fortnite was thrilling. And it’s highly likely that Respawn Entertainment will do things better than Epic Games in this matter.
