What Are Banners In Apex Legends?
Simply put, banners are the way you show off in Apex Legends. Each character has their own individual banner that you can set in the Locker. This is where you display your three chosen stat trackers for each character, your badges, your character pose, and of course your banner frame itself. These banners are what are shown to your squad on their squad screen pre-game, and to the entire lobby on the champion squad screen. Banners of the champion squad or kill leader can also be seen in-game around King’s Canyon, and are also seen by anyone who happens to be spectating you. There are plenty of opportunities to show off your banner, so make sure you set it up to show off your best achievements!
So, Let’s See The Banners!
All in all, there are currently 46 legendary banners in Apex Legends, with each legend having five unique banners of their own. The exception to this is Pathfinder who has six, with one banner having been available in the shop during Valentine’s Day. Legendary banners are all specifically themed to the legend they represent, and animated to add additional flair, this animation is the main thing that sets legendary banners apart from non-legendary banners. Below we will take a look at the legendary banners for each individual legend in Apex Legends:

Are There Exclusive Banners In Apex Legends?
Yes, there are exclusive banners in Apex Legends, however they do not seem to appear frequently as of now. There are currently only four exclusive banners in the game (exclusive meaning time-sensitive to obtain). These are the Founder’s Frame banners for Wraith, Gibraltar, and Bloodhound, along with the Love Is In The Air banner for Pathfinder from the Valentine’s Day 2019 event.
What About Seasonal Banners?
Banners do look to be part of the plan moving forward in each season with the battle pass in Apex Legends. The season 1 battle pass provides a single rare banner to all nine available legends in the game currently. These banners are themed to the legend they are unlocked for, however, they are not animated like the legendary banners are.
Are There Other Rarities Of Banners?
There are also common and rare banners, however, there are currently no epic or heirloom quality banners. As of now, every character has five available common banners, five available rare banners, and five available legendary banners by default. There is also an additional Season 1 rare banner for each legend from the Season 1 battle pass, along with the couple of exclusive additional banners mentioned above.
