Apex Legends Mobile’s Cold Snap update will be available for download today today, and Respawn Entertainment is kicking things off early with a brand new gameplay trailer that shows off all the new content players can expect to encounter in the mobile game’s newest update.
As previously reported, Loba is debuting on Apex Legends Mobile alongside the Cold Snap update. But while she’s generally the center of attention, she might just be upstaged by Apex Mobile’s newest throwable ordnance: Frost Grenades. These chilly explosives are no ordinary snowballs–they damage the enemy upon impact and freeze them, restricting their ability to move.
Of course, no big Apex update would be complete without loot. Today’s gameplay trailer gives players a glimpse of the new Frosted Loot Boxes and map changes that were mentioned in yesterday’s patch notes, along with a preview of some of the upcoming battle pass cosmetics–all ice-themed, of course.
Just like Apex Legends on console and PC, Apex Mobile has both a standard premium battle pass and an expanded premium battle pass. While the full contents of the Cold Snap battle pass won’t be known until the update is released, here’s what we know so far:
Battle Pass Premium:
- 1x Eternal Legend Skin (Octane – Ice Climber)
- 2x Legendary Legend Skin (Bangalore – Winter Ghillie, Bloodhound – Snow Prints)
- 2x Legendary Weapon Skin (EVA-8 Auto shotgun, Devotion LMG)
- Cosmetic rewards (Banners, Emotes, Syndicate Packs, etc)
- 800 Syndicate Gold
Battle Pass Premium Plus:
- All content from Battle Pass Premium
- 80% Bonus BP XP
- 500000 BP XP (10 BP level)
- Limited Avatar Frame
Players will also experience a Town Takeover this once the Cold Snap update goes live. The Climatizer on World’s Edge is getting a frosty makeover that impacts gameplay in a very unique way. The Climatizer allows players to blanket certain POIs in a layer of fresh snow, spawning Frosted Loot Boxes with collectable diamonds and Frost Grenades inside. Diamonds can be used to purchase cosmetics from the Cold Snap Seasonal Shop, and can also be found in the deathboxes of enemies.

In addition to the Climatizer Town Takeover, an LTM known as Armed and Dangerous will also make its debut in the mobile game via this update, allowing players to show off their skills using only shotguns and sniper rifles.
There is surely more to come, but the wait is almost over–Apex Legends Mobile’s Cold Snap update launches tonight at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET.
Apex Legends Mobile is available for download on iOS and Android.
