Wattson’s heirloom has been revealed and will release with the Apex Legends Raiders Collection Event that kicks off the holiday season.

Heirlooms are some of the most prized cosmetics in Apex Legends. They’re unique skins that are layered in the respective Legend’s lore and even come with their own animations and quips to add a bit of flair.

With nearly 20 characters in Respawn Entertainment’s battle royale, the pipeline for Heirlooms can get slow with many players still waiting for their favorite Legend to get one.

One of the most highly requested Heirlooms so far has been for Wattson and fans won’t have to wait long to get their hands on it.

Wattson heirloom revealed

Respawn revealed Wattson’s heirloom on December 2 after including it as the grand prize in the Raiders Collection Event.

The melee skin takes the shape of a gadget with a digital Nessie living inside of the heirloom.

The Nessie AI aspect perfectly lines up with what we know of the Static Defender. This could be Respawn’s way of personalizing her Heirloom since Nessie dolls have a special place in the Apex community and Wattson’s lore.

Wattson’s Energy Reader will be the 12th heirloom in Apex Legends following Lifeline’s and Rampart’s ultra-rare melee skins.

Wattson heirloom release date

Wattson’s Energy Reader heirloom will finally come to the game in the Apex Legends Raiders Collection Event starting on December 7.

Players will need to collect all 24 collectibles from the Raider Collection event in order to acquire Wattson’s heirloom.
