Riot just gave VALORANT players their first proper look at the next premium skin line, and it goes by the name Blackspyre. The reveal dropped during the Masters London weekend alongside the Act 4 announcements, and the early reaction has been loud.

Here is everything we know so far about the collection, when you can get it, and what it is going to cost you.

VALORANT Blackspyre Bundle

Blackspyre is the new premium skin collection arriving with VALORANT Season 2026 // Act 4. The art direction leans into a mix of sci-fi and mystical energy, which is an interesting combo. The guns themselves look clean and futuristic, with sharp metallic builds and flat top rails, while the melee weapons carry a much darker, almost cursed vibe that fits the mystical side of the theme.

Based on the official reveal image, it looks like human silhouettes are being dragged down into some kind of abyss, which is the same eerie energy the Reaper skinline gave off with its finisher. That has people speculating that Blackspyre might come packed with a similar soul-pulling finisher or at least follow that same dark thematic direction. Nothing is confirmed on the finisher yet, but the visual cues are hard to ignore.

BLACKSPYRE Skin Features:

  • Phantom
  • Spectre
  • Ares
  • Sheriff
  • And a possible duel-wielded melee skin

The Blackspyre collection covers five weapon slots. You are getting a Phantom, a Sheriff, a Spectre, and an Ares, which is a solid spread that hits a rifle, a pistol, an SMG, and a machine gun. The headliner, though, is the melee.

The reveal actually shows two distinct melee weapons, and that has caused a bit of confusion. One looks like a glowing sword while the other resembles a curved scythe.

It is very possible that one is simply the upgraded variant of the other, which is something Riot has done before with higher-tier melees, or it could be a dual-wielded melee skin. The melee itself is reportedly called The Divide, and if that orange glowing blade in the reveal is anything to go by, it is going to be a popular pick.

VALORANT Blackspyre Release Date

Mark your calendar for June 24, 2026. Blackspyre is set to drop on that date, landing just after Act 4 officially kicks off.

VALORANT Blackspyre Bundle Price

Riot has not locked in an official price tag for Blackspyre just yet. That said, premium skin collections in VALORANT that come with a unique melee and animated effects usually sit in the 7,100 VP range for the full bundle, with individual weapon skins typically landing around 1,775 VP each.

If Blackspyre follows that pattern, expect the full set to cost roughly the same. We will update this once Riot confirms the exact numbers, so treat the pricing as an educated estimate for now.
