Riot Games has revealed the VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 Battle Pass, giving players their first proper look at the new weapon skins, free rewards, player cards, sprays, buddies, and more. The new Battle Pass arrives alongside Act 5 on August 18, 2026.
This time around, Riot is leaning heavily into food, restaurant, and city-inspired cosmetics. The Battle Pass introduces three weapon collections called Gourmand, Verdant Cafe, and Last Stop, with Verdant Cafe also bringing the Act’s new melee skin.
All VALORANT Act 5 Battle Pass Skins
There are three main skin collections in the Season 2026 Act 5 Battle Pass. Riot’s reveal showcases a mix of clean restaurant-inspired designs, colorful cafe-themed weapons, and futuristic urban cosmetics.
Gourmand Collection
Gourmand uses a sleek white, black, and green design that feels noticeably cleaner than the other two collections.
The Gourmand skins include:
- Gourmand Bandit
- Gourmand Outlaw
- Gourmand Operator
- Gourmand Ares
The Gourmand Operator is also among the premium Battle Pass items specifically highlighted for Act 5.
Verdant Cafe Collection
Verdant Cafe is easily the most distinctive collection in the pass. Its green, brown, cream, and orange colors lean fully into the cafe theme, and the melee looks like something pulled straight from a restaurant kitchen.
The Verdant Cafe skins include:
- Verdant Cafe Classic
- Verdant Cafe Stinger
- Verdant Cafe Bulldog
- Verdant Cafe Vandal
- Verdant Cafe Chef’s Knife
The Verdant Cafe Classic is available through the free track, while the Chef’s Knife and Vandal are premium rewards.
Last Stop Collection
Last Stop moves away from the food theme with an urban transit-inspired design. The weapons feature blue panels, dark metallic sections, and bright neon-like detailing.
The Last Stop skins include:
- Last Stop Sheriff
- Last Stop Marshal
- Last Stop Phantom
- Last Stop Guardian
Riot has specifically highlighted the Last Stop Phantom as one of the paid Battle Pass rewards.
VALORANT Act 5 Battle Pass Free & Premium Rewards
Players who do not purchase the Premium Battle Pass still have plenty to unlock.
Riot has officially highlighted the following free rewards:
- Verdant Cafe Classic
- Hot Hot Hot Spray
- Too Many Cooks Card
- Toasted Buddy
The wider Battle Pass preview also shows 60 Radianite Points, additional player cards and sprays, and three titles called Left No Crumbs, Fried, and Serving Tea.
So, the free Classic is one of the bigger rewards, especially for anyone who likes the colorful Verdant Cafe collection but does not plan on buying the pass.
Premium Battle Pass Rewards
Weapon skins are only part of the Act 5 Battle Pass. Riot has also highlighted several accessories on the premium track, including:
- Nuggetman Buddy
- Chef’s Choice Card
- Personal Setup // Clove Card
- Pure Bread Spray
- Lil Diva Walkin Spray
The combination of restaurant-themed cards, sprays, titles, and buddies ties the Battle Pass together much more closely than some previous Acts.
VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 Battle Pass Price
The Season 2026 Act 5 Premium Battle Pass costs 1,000 VP. Riot’s Battle Pass system also includes a free track, meaning players can still earn selected cosmetics without spending VP.
The premium track gives access to the full collection of weapon skins and additional cosmetics as players earn XP throughout the Act.
When Does VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 Release?
VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 launches on August 18, 2026, bringing the new Battle Pass alongside the rest of the Act 5 content.
