As the Lunar New Year 2026 event gets closer, the VALORANT community is talking about a new skin collection that goes along with the Year of the Horse. Riot Games has previously announced the Lunar 2026 event pass and festivities, but leaks and early image reveals suggest that there will be a themed package that skin collectors and admirers of high-end design are really looking forward to. The bundle aptly named Solar Stride aims to wow VALROANT fans.

LNY 2026 Skin Bundle First Look

There isn’t much official information from Riot Games yet, but the Lunar 2026 (Year of the Horse) bundle has been teased on social media via leak accounts. Images from reliable leak sources show a premium set of weapon skins that look fiery and dynamic, which fits with the Fire Horse’s symbolic spirit in Chinese zodiac tradition.

The LNY 2026 Bundle Features:

  • Vandal
  • Guardian
  • Melee
  • Gunbuddy
  • Playercard
  • Spray

The skin line features a sleek, modern weapon aesthetic layered with a mix of intense orange and white tones. Metallic surfaces catch the eye with bright highlights that give each gun a polished, radiant feel. Fiery accents seem to trail along barrels and stocks, with a design direction that suggests motion and heat, making this bundle feel alive and thematic. The melee weapon also echoes this aesthetic, glowing with embers and flame motifs that match the firearm skins.

All the leaked Colorways of the LNY skin line:

  • Orange
  • Purple
  • Blue with Green Highlights
  • Pink

Release Date for the Lunar New Year 2026 Collection

According to community leaks and timing from past VALORANT seasonal drops, the Lunar New Year 2026 content, including the event pass, is expected to kick off on February 5, 2026, running through early March.

Price Expectations for the Year of the Horse Bundle

As of writing, we don’t have the exact details on the pricing of this new skin line. Riot Games typically prices premium bundles in VALORANT according to the number of included skins, finishers, and upgrade levels.

Although no official price has been announced for the Year of the Horse bundle, players should prepare for a near-top-tier cost that reflects the premium visual quality and limited seasonal nature of the content. Given past Lunar bundles and leaks pointing to a three-item set along with variants and a melee, the price will likely align with previous premium drops in the range that loyal collectors expect
