Here are the top ten skins for Wattson in Apex Legends that we believe are the best. The list will also include other details, such as release dates, alternative variants, and so on.

Respawn launched Apex Legends in February 2019. At the time of release, Respawn had only introduced 8 Legends into the game. Octane was the first Legend to set foot in the game, which was not part of the original roster of 8 members. Not long after, in Season 2, Respawn released Wattson.

Wattson was more of a defensive character. You can use her abilities to lock down a stronghold and make it nearly impossible for opponents to break through. Even though the current meta doesn’t favor a slow-turtling game style, Wattson is still a prominent pick and is loved by the community.

Though she has gone through some nerfs and buffs over time, she is still a fan-favorite Legend for many, and people still play this Legend, even in Season 19. So, Respawn did not disregard her and released a fair share of Legendary skins for this lovely Legend throughout the lifespan of Apex.

The Wattson skins list was last updated after Season 19 Ignite

How Many Wattson Skins are there in Apex Legends?

In season 19, Respawn released a total of 80 Wattson skins in Apex Legends. Among these, 27 legendary, 14 epic, 23 rare, and 16 common skins are available for this Legend.

So, without further ado, let’s get started.

Wattson is the nicest girl in Apex Legends, but she can get scary in a game. She doesn’t let anyone through any door, and if you try to, you will see the menacing side of her.

Cyber Punked is a self-explanatory cyberpunk-themed skin that suits Wattson in a very different way. The skin has a very edgy costume with transparent prosthetic thighs. Two devil horns and a patch over her right eye make it look like she has been in some rough fights. Cyber Punked was a reward for completing level 50 in the Season 4 Premium Battle Pass.

1. Rocket Scientist

Release DateFebruary 9, 2021
Available via2nd Anniversary Collection
AlternativesSilver Age

Rocket Scientist is by far the most sophisticated Wattson skin in the game. It is a recolor version of the Silver Age which is also another good-looking skin for Wattson that competes with it equally. However, the Silver Age can not beat the outstanding Shiny red color and gold texture combination of Rocket Scientist. This skin was first released in the Season 8 Anniversary Collection Event.

Will Past Event-related Wattson Skins Ever Return?

Respawn has announced that battle pass skins from Season 11 and onwards may be available in an event-specific skin package in the future. So, the event and recolor skins may ultimately make their way to the store. However, older skins from Battlepass may never make it into the game ever.

Upcoming Wattson Skins

As of this writing, there has been no new development regarding any new Wattson skins in the game. We’ll definitely highlight more Wattson skins as soon as they get announced. In the meantime, check out the Upcoming Leaked Skins article to find any forthcoming skins that will be available in the future.
