VALORANT is dropping plenty of surprise updates after Masters London. Alongside a new map and an upcoming Patch, Riot Games just revealed a sci-fi goth Blackspyre skin line. Let’s take a look at the skins, the new Blackspyre Divide knife, and how much they cost.
VALORANT’s New Skins
VALORANT announced a new skin line on June 22 2026, shortly after Masters London concluded. The set is titled Blackspyre. It takes inspiration from gothic and industrial aesthetics. It’s dark sci-fi to the max, covered in sleek gray metal. Riot Games opted for a unique knife skin in this set: the Divide includes both a sword and a scythe. The long melee weapon has black flames coming out of it in both forms, and it glows with a blazing, bright light.
The Blackspyre skins have four color variants and are upgradeable:
- Black and golden white
- Black and neon purple
- Black and orange
- Black and pure white
What Items Are In The VALORANT Blackspyre Skin Bundle?
The new collection is a relatively large bundle. It includes four weapon skins, one knife skin, and three cosmetics. Each VALORANT skin line includes one high-tier rifle, typically a Vandal or Phantom, a pistol, and two mid-range weapons. The Blackspyre line includes a Phantom, a Spectre and Ares for half-buys, and a Sheriff for saves.
- Phantom
- Ares
- Spectre
- Sheriff
- Blackspyre Divide (Melee Knife)
- Player Card
- Gun Buddy
- Spray
VALORANT Blackspyre Skins Release Date
VALORANT’s Blackspyre skins will be released soon, on Wednesday, June 24 2026. The set arrives shortly after Act 4 and the Patch 13.00 update. Act 4 will start a fresh competitive phase, and the patch notes are rumored to include some serious Sentinel buffs.
Act 4 will also usher in VALORANT’s newest map Summit. Summit is set in the mountains of China. Sage has a history there, since she trained to increase her radiant powers in a nearby facility. Summit’s plant sites are large and quite open. It features some vertical angles and an interesting door that can crush players beneath it if they’re not careful.
How Much Do the Blackspyre Skins Cost?
According to X.com leak account @ValorantLeaksEN, the full bundle will cost about 8,700 VP (about 75 USD). Players can also choose to buy individual items within the set, which is a cheaper way to score their favorite skins. Here’s a quick rundown of each portion’s price:
- All Weapons: 2,175 VP (about 21 USD)
- Blackspyre Knife: 5,350 VP (50 USD)
- Gun Buddy: 475 VP (about 5 USD)
- Player Card: 375 VP (about 5 USD)
- Spray: 325 VP (about 5 USD)
How to Buy the New VALORANT Skins
VALORANT players can purchase skins in the game’s Store tab at the top right of the home page. Usually, VALORANT’s premium items will show up in one of the store’s large banners, right in the middle of the page. Blackspyre’s skins will probably be here. If you don’t see them, look for the three thin bar icons in the middle of the screen and click on the next one to switch banners.
The Blackspyre skins will cost real-world money to obtain, since players can only buy them with premium VALORANT Points (VP) currency. It’s important to note that some VP transactions are not refundable. Make sure you’re positive about your purchase before buying!
There are more VALORANT changes to look out for in the upcoming months. Riot Games recently announced significant 2027 VCT changes, and the 13.00 Patch will shake up the meta soon. Stay tuned to EsportNow for more updates!
