ALGS-themed items debut in Apex Legends
The official announcement states that each team will be getting a bundle that includes a thematic banner, but that there’s some variation for the bigger pieces.
“The items in the ALGS Team Shop will include team-branded Epic Banner Frames, plus bundles featuring Epic or Legendary Weapon and Legend Skins.”
The full list of participants is quite extensive, so the new items are being divided up into two weeks worth of additions.
Each week will consist of items for five teams and is divided up like so:
July 5th – 12th (Week 1):
- 100 Thieves
- TSM
- Crazy Raccoon
- Cloud9
- NRG
July 12th – 19th (Week 2):
- NaVi
- Alliance
- G2 Esports
- Complexity
- Team Liquid
The trailer features each team receiving a signature Legend skin, like a TSM-themed Octane and a Team Liquid Bangalore, with a variety of team-specific gun skins as well.
The full list of available items will likely be revealed in the coming days and we’ll be sure to bring the latest updates if/when that happens.
