Apex Legends Collection Events usually feature 24 cosmetic items to be collected in order to unlock an Heirloom or a Prestige skin. However, the Celestial Sunrise Collection Event has a very different reward for collecting all event cosmetics.
The Celestial Sunrise Collection Event will run from January 23, 2023, to February 7, 2023. The collection reward for the Celestial Sunrise Collection Event is the reactive Jadeite Retribution skin for the Peacekeeper, here is how to get it.

To get the reactive Peacekeeper skin, you must collect all 24 Celestial Sunrise Collection cosmetics. While all cosmetics can be purchased with Crafting Metals or Apex Coins, chances are, players will have to drop some actual money to unlock them all.
Most collection events require about $160 to purchase all cosmetics and unlock the collection reward. While some may consider purchasing the collection items to unlock a new Heirloom or a Prestige skin, many players are already questioning if the reactive Peacekeeper skin is worth it.
Unfortunately, the Jadeite Retribution skin is just a recolor of the Season 3 Battle Pass rewards, the Frostbite and Blood Stone Peacekeeper skins. The reactive Peacekeeper skins in Season 3 were very popular, so at least players can have another chance to grab a green version of the skin. The Season 3 Battle Pass was $10 and the Peacekeeper skins could be unlocked at levels 100 and 110, which has led to many players pointing out the massive difference in price to unlock the Jadeite Retribution skin.
The Celestial Sunrise Collection Event comes as a surprise, as collection events are usually pretty spread out. This collection event directly follows the Spellbound event, which ends on January 23. The Celestial Sunrise Collection will also feature a new Hardcore Royale limited-time mode and many of the cosmetics fit the Lunar New Year theme.
