Apex Legends x Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth Event Start Date
The Apex Legends x Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth event start date is just around the corner with at least three iconic crossover skins.
Respawn Entertainment shocked everyone when they revealed an upcoming Apex Legends x Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth collaboration at The Game Awards back in December. Although most fans were hoping for a Titanfall 3 announcement, the crossover coming to Apex Legends was met with an overwhelmingly positive reception. With the release date of Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth still over a month away, players can first celebrate the upcoming title in Respawn Entertainment's Battle Royale.
So, when does the Apex Legends x Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth event go live?

Expect more Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth-themed skins and cosmetics coming to Apex Legends throughout the event.
