As much as fans are excited for Valorant Champions 2022 to see their favorite teams compete for the trophy, they have been eagerly waiting for the Valorant Champions 2022 bundle to be revealed. The wait is finally over as Riot has revealed the details regarding Champions 2022 skinline including its price, skins, and more.
Valorant Champions 2022 Bundle Release Date and Price
Valorant Champions 2022 Bundle will release on 23rd August after Reaver 2.0 bundle leaves the store and will cost 6265 VP which costs around $60 but the price can vary a bit based on your region.
Riot has also announced that 50% of the net revenue from the collection from 23rd August to 21st September will go to the teams participating in the Champions. Also, another thing that you need to keep in mind is that skins from this bundle will not return to the Night Market, so it's your only chance to grab them.
Laura Baltzer, Producer at Riot Games, said, "When we were designing the Champions 2022 weapons, we wanted to give players a skin with the same feeling as last year: something that was aspirational and bold, that let you flex and show off your skill whether you’re popping off in ranked or dropping 30 on the VCT broadcast. To do that, we took a lot of the elements of the Champions 2021 weapons that players loved and added a few twists."
