The Apex Legends Iron Crown solos event begins August 13 and features an event-exclusive Legendary skin Bloodhound skin which we now have our first look at.
After much pleading from fans, Apex Legends is finally adding in a solo mode, but it’s only around for two weeks as part of a limited-time event.
That has the chance to stay much longer depending on feedback from the fans, and there’s a good chance it will be positive given the prizes that are up for grabs.
A brand-new Bloodhound skin was unveiled that takes us back to the time of the ancient Romans.
Fans have been clamoring for better skins since the launch of the item shop and Respawn looks to have taken that feedback to heart by offering a good looking selection of skins with this event.

One thing we’re still missing is exactly how we’re supposed to unlock the skin but that will be revealed once the event actually begins.

Bloodhound isn’t the only one getting a new skin as Wraith and Pathfinder are also receiving a nice looking one, bringing the confirmed number of Legends getting enhanced looks up to three.
We’d be surprised if new skins don’t end up coming to even more Legends considering how good looking and well-received these have been so far.
Details about the event itself are still scarce as all we really know is it will feature a solos-only mode with skins as rewards, but there might be more to it.
Getting a permanent solos mode would be huge for Apex as it’d then be on par with other battle royale titles such as Fortnite or PUBG with their gameplay options.
Apex is more team-oriented than those games due to the different Legends but Respawn can certainly find a way to make it work.
