Apex Legends Badges: Rarest and hardest badges to unlock, Ranked, Clubs, Arenas

Calum Patterson

Apex Legends has countless badges for you to collect and proudly display on your in-game banner, across game modes, weapons and Legends. Here are all of the badges in the game and how to get them –  as well as some that are no longer possible to get.

Although the majority of Apex Legends players dive down into the Outlands to be the last one standing and takedown the competition, showing off your achievements and lifetime progress on your banner is all part of the fun.

Whether it’s skins, banners, or even trackers, the developers at Respawn are keen to give the community something ways to flex their experience

And it’s the account badges that often encourage players to grind the most, but what’s so special about these sought-after collectibles? Here we’ll break down all the badges in Apex, and how they can be attained.

What are badges in Apex Legends?

Badges are the ultimate way to show off your skills, experience, records, and achievements in Apex Legends. You can assign a total of three badges to each Legend’s banner.

Many badges are account-wide, but there are also specific Legend badges you will earn for playing, and earning achievements with a specific Legend. These badges can then only be applied to that Legend’s banner.

Hardest badges to unlock in Apex Legends

Some badges are incredibly hard to obtain and require very skillful (or lucky) gameplay to unlock, putting them out of reach for many players.

However, it’s the rarity and difficulty of these badges that puts them above the rest, as so many players are desperate to add them to their collection. Here are some of the rarest and hardest badges to unlock:

In the future, more events will come to Apex Legends, and will no doubt feature even more exclusive badges. Also, with future “Edition” bundles, there will be specific badges for characters.

Apex Legends Support Badges
