Two Paid Battle Pass Versions

There will be two paid versions of the Battle Pass for the whole duration of the season: The Empowered Battle Pass and the Collector’s Empowered Battle Pass. The prior includes all rank rewards from the free standard Battle Pass, but also has an Empowered track that will add rewards at each rank. It will also include the Bloodsworn Weapon cosmetic, unlocked at rank one, and the thorn-covered Bloodsworn Armor cosmetic unlocked at rank 40.
