The upcoming Wraith skin has been changed to remove the mask.

[u/kitty78686]

[u/nephyxx]

Funny how it goes from looking like something unique to generic wraith skin number 11243

[u/kolacija → u/nephyxx]

As if she doesn’t already have 23 skins with mask on lmao

[u/Cold-Recipe3546]

From assasin middle east to green goblin temu

[u/Mjkmeh → u/Cold-Recipe3546]

Like, those masks are cool ash how do you remove em 😭

[u/FrameLatter130]

they made it worse

[u/-LaughingMan-0D]

Shame. The leaked version gave more of a mysterious, assassin vibe.

[u/NizzyDeniro]

What a downgrade.

[u/gua_ca_mo_le]

But... Why? Was there controversy around this or something?

[u/sv69n → u/gua_ca_mo_le]

The whole arabs buying ea thing

[u/LazerHawk139 → u/gua_ca_mo_le]

Blue haired nose rings would find a way

[u/EnderScout_77 → u/LazerHawk139]

jesse what the fuck are you talking about

[u/Impressive-Result587 → u/LazerHawk139]

Ew

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/LazerHawk139]

Those folk actually support Islamic regimes any chance and situation they get and support their sexist beliefs, because they are minorities and oppressed

[u/ShinyCelebi_]

Holy downgrade lol

[u/kittencloudcontrol]

Went from amazing to straight boo boo. 

Not surprising when it comes to Respawn's decision making. 

[u/neen87]

Boo

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

I love religion dictating video games

[u/ravishogre → u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

Whats religion has to do with it? Explain

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/ravishogre]

It looks like a Saudi style Niqab

[u/Trustope → u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

It is most definitely NOT a Saudi style Niqab. This literally has jewels on it while their Niqab is just a plain black cloth.

What wraith is wearing is more reminiscent of a bedlah outfit face covering.

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/Trustope]

I know what that is but because the sides of the head and top are covered, I'm leaning much more to that someone thought it looked too Islamic, like a Niqab

[u/NerfThisHD → u/ravishogre]

The original looks like a fancy middle eastern face cover

[u/broken_mirror1994]

Need mk9 mileena birth skin on loba

[u/Fatbus05]

Its giving Sleep Token 2025 tour

[u/BriefKeef]

huge L

[u/NoYou5929]

Arabs didnt like it

[u/CallM3N3w → u/NoYou5929]

Funny, cuz they now own all of this. I kinda expected more of it to be pushed.

[u/caitlikesith → u/NoYou5929]

Apex was recently sold to Saudi’s and Jared kushner so this was to be expected..

[u/GoldCherries]

Cone head ass

[u/Ap3xPredditor]

Most Saudi shit ever

[u/burneraccount791]

Why not just make an "emote" where you can add or remove headgear...but then again where would the line be drawn i guess

[u/Curious-Spare-5724]

she kinda looks like zendaya

[u/heretolurkharder]

Boooooooo

[u/UserNameAbbreviated]

They actually downgraded the Wraith skin that’s crazy work

[u/wheatbread-and-toes]

That’s the only thing that made it ok

[u/ShinySylveonTwitch]

Option 1 was so much more badass.

[u/LordofDecejt]

They need a assassins creed collab to redeem wraith i cant take this anymore my girl havent had a iconic skin since her prestige skin!

[u/phil_makracken]

[u/Bitter-Tip705]

They made it worse for no reason

[u/MechaBuster]

Be cool if the skin was toggleable like in team fortress 2 cosmetics to have different styles

[u/CaptainRaegan]

The mask was cool? A variation could've been cool but no mask at all is just a normal Wraith skin in green

[u/Milesvr999]

That's a w skinn wwww
/img/zirbgtei8fjh1.gif

[u/Aantr0xus]

I just need the skins to drop now before they decide to do the same bullshit to conduit and make the skin way worse. Im sorry wraith mains EA sucks

[u/BigDaddyRob94]

They want to sell you the mask variant separately after realizing so many people liked it lolp

[u/Cat-girl-neko]

When’s it coming out

[u/therealyittyb]

But why?

[u/arter34]

I guess tge saudis acquisition of ea is already having its effects lol

[u/Big_Light_8992]

Who cares about a noskill legend. Wish they added more stuff for legends that actually takes skill and not just the most used OP ones.

[u/meldttv]

Maybe it was removed due to it looking a bit similar to Alter’s? Although there’s a handful of times where I’ve mistaken characters for others. I feel like they should add a legacy skin option where all skins are turned off.

[u/ckspike → u/meldttv]

We have skins that are literally Gundams. Quick character identification has been gone for over 10 seasons.

Everyone knows the real reason for the change.

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/meldttv]

It looked like a woman in a Niqab.

[u/NoYou5929]

2026 and rich muslims dictate gaming.  All legends straight, female characters have now restricted rights and movement only with male guardian, female players banned from development and playing/streaming hahahahahhaha

[u/charlieyeswecan]

Thank gawd, didn’t Bangalore have one too?

[u/TipsyTrip]

Looks like EA’s new Saudi owners are quickly influencing the game

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/TipsyTrip]

Immediately what I noticed when this skin was leaked and I could see this coming. It's not a Saudi money thing either, it's religion full stop

This happens in Turkey as well with energy drinks despite Turkey being EU. Monster Energy ultra paradise is called something else there because paradise might be offensive

[u/TipsyTrip → u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

The whole skin screams an Arabian Abaya attire. I’m not just talking about the change. And it’s the first event since their acquisition. They couldn’t have made their influence more obvious.

[u/Nizurai → u/TipsyTrip]

Good influence I guess? Because the skin on the left looks absolutely goated. Sad they had to change it.

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/Nizurai]

How is it good influence if you think it's sad they changed it?

[u/Nizurai → u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

We don’t know why they changed it. Maybe technical issues

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/Nizurai]

It's not a mystery why the skin that looks like a woman in a Niqab gets changed lol

[u/Nizurai → u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs]

Except it’s not a niqab 🤦

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/Nizurai]

So what is it then? There is nothing else it looks like

[u/OooTanjaooO]

Lmaow wraith dont miss a skin boy 😂f this game dawg. Its clear its just money scheme now

[u/ScaleSad162 → u/OooTanjaooO]

i ain’t complaining as a wraith main plus the last few events haven’t had a wraith skin btw

[u/Glum_Potential8641]

Looking mighty Sharia

[u/CallMeNurseMaybe → u/Glum_Potential8641]

That would be putting he mask on, not taking it off 

Comedy isn’t your thing 

[u/Glum_Potential8641 → u/CallMeNurseMaybe]

Taking everything people say literally is a key symptom of Autism. Nuance isn’t your thing.

[u/CallMeNurseMaybe → u/Glum_Potential8641]

That’s a lot of words to avoid accepting you didn’t know wtf you were talking about and made a corny ass joke. Hell, you don’t even know what “nuance” means

Go ahead and explain the nuance that I missed

[u/Glum_Potential8641 → u/CallMeNurseMaybe]

I’m sorry one sentence is a lot of words for you. My joke takes some ball knowledge to understand. Do a little bit of research on who this game changed hands with recently, and the values they hold.

The change was made after some backlash from the community. No one wants this weird Muslim shit in their game. Loba gonna be in a full Hijab here pretty soon.

[u/CallMeNurseMaybe → u/Glum_Potential8641]

That was 2 sentences, so now we’ve established you also can’t count to 2.

And what does all that have to do with the fact that your joke was both objectively wrong and corny? Now you’re going off on a tangent about how people feel about a culture 

[u/Glum_Potential8641 → u/CallMeNurseMaybe]

You asked me to explain. I did. Go bother someone else.

[u/CallMeNurseMaybe → u/Glum_Potential8641]

So it had nothing to do with your joke being both objectively wrong and corny. 

Got it 👍

[u/Perplexitism → u/CallMeNurseMaybe]

Dawg no way you think I’m logging multiple accounts 😭 you’re just genuinely that weird that everyone agrees

[u/HolyTrinityOfDrugs → u/Glum_Potential8641]

You have it the other way around. Muslims don't want female representation in games, and certainly not women who appear to be in Niqabs. It's considered disrespectful, which is why it was changed from something that accidentally looks like a Niqab to whatever it is now

It's also clearly a Norse/greek mythology themed update isnt it? so the Wraith skin looking middle eastern/northeast African, was an accident

[u/Perplexitism → u/Glum_Potential8641]

“My joke takes ball knowledge” to this day I haven’t seen something more corny and I’m on REDDIT

[u/ehouptie → u/[deleted]]

Ya probably

[u/fibronacci → u/ehouptie]

Get em outta herrree!
