While the main draw of Apex Legends will always be its top-tier gunplay and buttery smooth movement, cosmetics are certainly a huge factor as well.

The devs put a massive amount of effort into creating reactive weapon designs, Legend skins, and every other collectable available in the Outlands.

Despite this, none are more sought-after than the Mythic tier rewards, these being Heirlooms and Prestige skins.

Typically, Respawn manages to keep who is getting the next Prestige skin a secret until an official announcement, but a leak may have revealed the next candidate.

Pathfinder may be getting next Apex Legends Mythic skin

 

According to reliable leaker Kralrindo, Pathfinder will be the next character in Apex Legends to receive a Prestige skin.

There are no details on the design currently, so that's a mystery for now, but there is evidence in the files that it's coming soon. While Kral didn't provide a release date, we can assume it's coming at some point in Season 21, which is just around the corner.

Given Pathfinder's massive popularity, with him currently sitting as the second most popular Legend at an 8.6% pick rate, it makes sense why the devs would choose him.

So, what happened to Lifeline's Prestige skin? Originally it was leaked that Lifeline was the next Legend to get a Prestige skin back in January.

However, according to Kral, the "plans changed", and the Combat Medic is most likely getting a Mythic in Season 22. That will be disappointing news for fans of the Support, but at the very least, Forward Scout mains can rejoice that the lovable MRVN is getting a Mythic very soon.
