As has been the case for the past few seasons, players who purchase the Season 8 Battle Pass can work towards unlocking the different upgraded versions of both the Luxe and Hybrid.

The skins’ appearances can be upgraded by meeting certain objectives, which also don’t have a time limit, so they can be completed even after Season 8 has ended.
