Ben Lyons Senior Editor 19 May 2021

The Apex Legends Global Series Championship is fast approaching, bringing the best teams from around the world together to compete for a share of a hefty prize pool. However, how much teams will be competing for is now unknown as EA has announced a select range of Apex Legends cosmetic bundles that will raise the prize pool up to a cap of $3 million.

The five bundles are the Mechameleon, Boared to Death, Wild Speed, Silverback and Animal Kingdom packs, and the former four will each offer an animal-themed skin, frame, and gun charm. The Animal Kingdom bundle contains all of the above. They are all live in game right now.

EA has promised to add $5 to the prize pool for each of the single packs purchased by the community, and $20 for each Animal Kingdom pack, and has said that they will continue adding to the prize pool up to $2 million, hence making a cap of $3 million for the Championship.

The ALGS Championship is slated to start group stages this weekend, in the APAC and South American regions.
