Just like last year, right before Valorant Champions, we will get a limited edition skin bundle containing skins for a primary weapon and melee. Let's see what Riot has prepared for us for Champions 2022!
Today we got the announcement skins that the community has been waiting for a long time, and it's the Champions 2022 bundle. As most speculated, this year, instead of Vandal skin, we will get Phantom and one of the most wanted knife types - the Butterfly... but that's not all! Without further ado, let's get into the details.

Valorant Champions 2022 Skin Bundle: Weapons & Prices
Valorant Champions 2022 will contain:
- Upgradeable Phantom Skin

Riot Games has not yet announced exact prices for all Champions 2022 cosmetics, but we already know that the entire bundle will cost 6265 Valorant Points, which is something about $60. Of course, just as last year, you will be able to purchase all the skins separately.
