Valorant launches a limited-time Arcane bundle to celebrate Season 2 release

Celebrate Arcane Season 2 with Valorantโ€™s limited-edition bundle featuring exclusive skins and Twitch drops. Available November 8 - December 5.

Riot Games is bringing something special to Valorant with a limited-time bundle designed to celebrate the much-anticipated release of Arcane Season 2 on Netflix. The exclusive Arcane Season 2 Collectorโ€™s Set will be available in the in-game shop from November 8 to December 5, offering fans of the show and the game a chance to bring elements of the Arcane universe into their Valorant experience.

This Collectorโ€™s Set captures the essence of Arcaneโ€™s main characters, Vi and Jinx, with unique weapon skins, animations, and cosmetic items that reflect the distinct style of the Arcane world. Letโ€™s take a closer look at whatโ€™s included in the new bundle and the additional ways players can celebrate the return of Arcane.

Whatโ€™s in the Arcane Season 2 Collectorโ€™s Set?

The limited-time bundle features several unique items inspired by the animated series. The main highlight is the Arcane Vandal skin, which includes custom visual effects and animations and a special finisher animation that brings a touch of Arcane magic to the game. This skin lets you wield the weapon with a new, striking look that stands out in combat.

Another eye-catching item in the set is a pair of Arcane Gauntlets, inspired by Viโ€™s signature hextech-powered fighting gear. Known for her fierce fighting style in Arcane, Viโ€™s gauntlets are an essential part of her character, and this skin allows players to channel her power in Valorant. This powerful addition adds a new layer of immersion for fans who admire Viโ€™s strength and combat skills.

In addition to these skins, the bundle includes various cosmetics to round out the theme. Players can collect the โ€œArcane Sistersโ€ Player Card, which represents Vi and Jinxโ€™s complex sisterhood, and the โ€œArcane Enforcerโ€ Gun Buddy, a themed accessory you can attach to your weapons for added style. Thereโ€™s also an Arcane-themed spray that players can use in-game to show their love for the series.

Earn exclusive rewards with Twitch drops

Beyond the bundle, Riot Games hosts special Twitch drop events to give Valorant players additional ways to earn Arcane-themed rewards. From November 8, fans can join the global community premiere countdown on the Riot Games Twitch channel or through partnered co-streamers to get in on these limited-time rewards.

If you watch the Arcane Season 2 premiere event for 30 minutes, youโ€™ll earn a unique Vi player card, a must-have for fans of the character. For those eager to unlock even more, a second drop will occur from November 16 to November 23. Watching for an hour during this period will unlock a special Jinx player card, adding another piece of the Arcane universe to your Valorant collection. This allows fans to celebrate the new season while enjoying exclusive in-game items unavailable elsewhere.

The second season of Arcane will officially premiere on Netflix on November 9, continuing the story of Vi and Jinx as they navigate life on opposite sides of a growing conflict. Set in the cities of Piltover and Zaun, Arcane explores the tension and rivalry between the two sisters, who each represent different aspects of their world. Vi, voiced by Hailee Steinfeld, and Jinx, brought to life by Ella Purnell, are set to face new challenges that will test the bonds of family and loyalty. Fans can expect more profound character development, thrilling action, and an immersive story that delves into the lore of League of Legends like never before.

If you havenโ€™t seen the trailer yet, you can check it out to get a taste of whatโ€™s in store for Vi, Jinx, and other iconic characters in the series.

Bundle pricing details

The Arcane Season 2 Collectorโ€™s Set is priced at 5,925 VP for the complete bundle, while individual items are also available for those who prefer to pick and choose. The prices for each item are as follows:

  • Arcane Vandal skin: 2,175 VP
  • Arcane Gauntlets: 4,350 VP
  • Arcane Sisters Player Card: 375 VP
  • Arcane Enforcer Gun Buddy: 475 VP
  • Arcane-themed spray: 325 VP

These items are available only for a limited time, so check them out before the collection leaves the shop on December 5. This special set gives fans of Valorant and Arcane a rare chance to unite the two worlds and carry a piece of Arcane with them in every match.
