10 Video Game Unlocks Nobody Could Afford

6. PAX Twisted Fate Skin - League Of Legends (2009)

Since its release in 2009, Riot Games has continued to expand League Of Legends, with the online battle game now having 163 Champions and 1000 skins for dedicated fans to pursue.

Unfortunately, getting every single skin is an almost impossible task now. The Super Mario-inspired King Rammus, for instance, was only awarded to beta testers while Young Ryze and Silver Kayle were obtained exclusively from pre-ordering physical copies of the game (the latter of which had its code disabled in 2014).

The rarest and subsequently most desired unlockable, though, is the PAX Dark Fate Skin.

Handed out as codes to the first 20,000 attendees of the PAX 2009 event, this limited-edition skin was meant to celebrate the game's launch and thank those for coming to the show.

With no other means of obtaining this skin, the only way League fans can get this unique skin for this character is to find one of the original game codes online or purchase an account with the costume, which can cost upwards of $300.

Riot Games would go on to release PAX skins for Jax and Sivir in the following two years, with each skin being just as sought after as the last.
