Apex Legends might not have gotten any new weapons, throwables, or other resources just yet in Season 5, but there is new one thing to look out for: Treasure Packs. Its hard to miss these treasures once theyre in front of you, but youve got to find them first if you want to unlock whats inside. The rewards range from progression in the battle pass to crafting materials, and these packs will also be key parts of your PvE experience if you want to keep playing the new Hunts as theyre released.

Theres a limited number of Treasure Packs you can get in Apex Legends throughout Season 5 with even more restrictions place on when you can get them, but theyre worth hunting for. If you stumble across a Treasure Pack in Apex Legends during your normal matches, heres what you need to know about it.

How to Find Treasure Packs

To find Treasure Packs in Apex Legends, just play like you normally would. Open all the Supply Bins you can find in your hunts for loot, and if youre lucky, an orange-red box will pop out of one of them eventually. Its outlined with a big red banner like youd see on a pair of fully charged Evo Shields, so its hard to miss.

Just pick one up when you see it and forget about it until youre done with your match. It doesnt take up any inventory space, and when the match is complete, youll be able to see whats inside. Theyre pretty common, so you shouldnt have a hard time finding one in about two to three games.

What Can I Get from the Treasure Packs?

Inside the Treasure Packs are things like battle pass progression (called CP and usually in increments of the thousands), crafting materials, Apex Packs, and the opportunity to pursue Hunts as theyre released. Your reward will be shown to you once the match is finished.

If you want to see whats to come, just head to the Quest section of the Season 5 menu spotted in the top-left corner of the main Apex menu. Youll see talk of a story called The Broken Ghost with a line of Treasure Pack rewards beneath it that looks a lot like a battle pass progression system. The gold rewards spaced out five Treasure Packs apart are the Hunts, but even if youve already acquired enough Treasure Packs to play one, you have to wait till its released.

Whats a Hunt?

Hunts are the PvE missions added in Season 5 that center around Loba and her mission on Kings Canyon. Nine different Hunts will take place throughout the season, and you can start getting invested in the story now by visiting the prologue section of the above below.

The first Hunt isnt live yet, so dont stress about not seeing the option. It starts on May 19th with more to come after it, so youve got plenty of time still to get Treasure Packs.

How Many Treasure Packs Can I Get?

You can get just one Treasure Pack per day and can collect 45 of them in total throughout Season 5. This means that its possible to not hit the max number of Treasure Packs if youre not playing consistently, but again, it doesnt take more than a game or two to find one from personal experience.

The restrictions on the Treasure Packs essentially turn the find into a daily login reward, though you do have to work a bit more for these than other games that just dish out the gifts immediately. Those who play more will find greater benefit from them, but since all the rewards are geared around cosmetics with the exception of the PvE Hunts, youll only miss out to an extent if you dont find them all.

What If Ive Hit My Treasure Pack Limit?

Weve got a long way to go until players start hitting their limit of 45 Treasure Packs, but its entirely possible that youll find several of them in a day if youre playing often. Since you can only collect one per day, you should do with them what you should be doing with all other valuable loot: Ping them for your teammates.

The characters have unique voice lines for the Treasure Packs and will alert their teammates to the prizes location. Theyre not really worth leaving a fight to get since theyre common enough, so dont ditch your team for them, but grab them when you can.
