In the past, Respawn Entertainment only released Heirlooms with its Apex Legends Collections Events, but now, the devs also offer Prestige Skins.

These incredibly detailed cosmetics offer special interactions, a finisher, and (of course) a set of tiers that each provide the skin with a different appearance.

The last one to be released into the Outlands was the Caustic Prestige skin that arrived in the Veiled Collection Event. Thanks to a leak, we now potentially know which Legend is next in line for a Prestige Skin and the type of design Respawn has gone for.

According to Apex Legends YouTuber Thordan Smash and Insider Gaming, it appears Valkyrie will be the next character in line for a Prestige Skin in Apex Legends.

The Winged Avenger is a fan-favourite, and while she isn't dominating the meta as she has done in the past, she's still a great candidate for the mythic cosmetic.

It's worth noting that the leak also revealed that the skin would feature a Gundam-style design that'll include multiple mech components across all three tiers.

As always, players will be able to unlock every tier of the skin by racking up a certain amount of damage in their matches with the cosmetic equipped.

When will Valkyrie Prestige skin be released in Apex Legends?

Currently, we do not know exactly when the Valkyrie Prestige skin is coming to Apex Legends. Still, the leak does indicate it will be flying into action at some point in Season 17.

As we're expecting a total of two Collection Events this season, it's likely either's Valkyrie's skin or Horizon's Heirloom is coming at the end of June, so we'll just have to wait and see which one arrives first.

Either way, the cosmetic is expected to arrive in Season 17, so there won't be long to wait before you can get your hands on it and enjoy all the mech madness of a Gundam-themed Valkyrie.
