Apex Legends Season 15 will see the introduction of a new Wraith Prestige skin, confirming previous leaks, and it will be available in the Wintertide update. Here’s how you can unlock Apex Voidshifter during the event.

Prestige skins are a fairly new addition to Apex Legends. Both Bangalore and Bloodhound already have their Prestige skins – complete with unique finisher animations and an appearance that gets upgraded as the player does damage with that Legend.

These three-in-one skins are something for players to look forward to other than Heirlooms, and can usually be acquired as the crown jewel of a Collection event or via rolling Heirloom Shards out of a loot box.

According to datamining off the initial Apex Legends Season 15 patch, Wraith was set to get the next Prestige skin – and it has since been confirmed by developers.

Let’s take a look at how to unlock it, as well as what it looks like.

How to unlock Wraith Prestige skin in Apex Legends

The Wraith Prestige skin is called Apex Voidshifter and is available during the Wintertide event, which starts on December 6, at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm GMT.

To unlock it, players will need to follow these steps – as seen in our Prestige skin guide:

  1. Unlock tier 1 by completing the Collection event, or purchasing the skin from the Mythics store
  2. Unlock tier 2 by completing a gameplay challenge with the Legend
    1. e.g. 30,000 damage
  3. Unlock tier 3 by completing a gameplay challenge with the Legend
    1. e.g. 70,000 damage
  4. You will also unlock the Prestige finisher with tier 3

The new look was unveiled on November 30, along with several other winter cosmetics.

Like those before her, Wraith gradually gains more armor and has her appearance drastically changed through the transition from tier 1 to tier 3.

Keep in mind that previous tiers can still be used after progressing past that tier. So, if someone were to unlock tier 2 of Wraith’s Prestige skin, but they prefer the first iteration, they can choose to hold onto her initial appearance.

On top of these previews, leaks also revealed her exclusive tier 3 finisher.

Wraith appears to have a type of energy whip and brutalizes the enemy with electric shocks before slamming them into the ground. This finisher is about as over-the-top as the other two Prestige skins.

The Wintertide update rolls out this December. For more information about it, including new skins and cosmetics for other Legends, click here.
