Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into Apex Legends lately, and I’ve got some stuff to share about snagging those sweet, sweet redemption codes. You know, the ones that get you free in-game goodies? Yeah, those. Here’s the lowdown from my own treasure hunt.
First off, I started by scouring the internet for any info on how to even get these codes. Turns out, Apex Legends tosses out these codes during promotions or special events. They’re like little golden tickets for Apex Coins, unique skins, and sometimes items you can’t get any other way. I figured, why not try to grab some?

So, I started following all the official Apex Legends social media accounts. I thought, “Gotta be where the action is, right?” I also subscribed to a bunch of gaming newsletters. I wasn’t messing around. I even joined a few Apex Legends communities online. I learned that these codes are sometimes hidden in plain sight in their posts or dropped during live streams. Sneaky, right?
My first attempt at redeeming a code was a bit of a mess. I found a code from an older post and tried punching it in. Here’s how I did it: I launched Apex Legends, went to the store tab, and clicked on “Redeem Code” on the bottom left. Typed it in, hit enter, and… nothing. Code 100. I did some digging and found out that Code 100 usually means there’s a connection hiccup, or the code’s just expired. Bummer.
But I didn’t give up. I kept an eye out and finally, during a live stream event, they flashed a new code on the screen. I was ready this time. I paused the stream, jotted down the code, and zipped over to the game. Store, Redeem Code, type, type, type, enter. Boom! It worked! I got myself a shiny new weapon skin. Felt like I won the lottery, haha.
Here’s what I learned from this whole experience:
- Timing is everything. These codes can expire faster than you can say “loot tick.”
- Follow the right sources. Official channels and community groups are gold mines for active codes.
- Be quick. When you see a code, jump on it before it’s gone.
- Don’t be afraid to check. Your email that you bought the game with. I also tried to find my product key there!
- Double check the error message. A code 100 doesn’t mean you did something wrong, it could be a connection issue or the codes’s just old.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a thrill-hunt, but scoring free stuff in Apex Legends makes it all worth it. And remember, if at first, you don’t succeed, try, try again. Happy hunting, fellow Legends!
