Apex Legends has released 27 unique characters so far. So, let’s find out the pick rate of each Legend in Season 29.

Since the beginning of Apex Legends, Respawn has introduced a considerable number of characters in the game. Till Season 29, we have seen 27 Legends being released into Apex Legends, all with their own abilities and unique features.

In every season, Respawn makes changes to these legends to keep them balanced and spice things up. Likewise, the Legend adjustments throughout the season also affect the Legend pick rate.

In any case, some legends are more popular than others and usually remain at the top regardless of other alternatives.

Additionally, the pick rate of newly released legends typically remains higher. So, that does not represent their actual pick rate in most cases. So, without further ado, let’s find out the overall character pick rate in Season 29.
