Valorant is famous for its fashionable and colorful cosmetic skins that enable players to customize their gameplay. Of all the methods through which these skins can be obtained, the Valorant Night Market is perhaps the most thrilling and eagerly awaited in-game event. It provides players with an opportunity to buy weapon skins at a reduced price, but the mechanism and availability are slightly different from the standard Valorant store.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to buy Valorant skins from the Night Market.
What is the Valorant Night Market?
Night Market is a temporary event that occurs about every two months in Valorant. It has six random gun skins available to the player at discounted prices, and each player gets a different choice. These skins are picked from a set of qualifying cosmetics, typically not including recently released bundles, ultra-premium, and exclusive-tier skins.
How to Purchase Skins from the Valorant Night Market?
Purchasing skins from Valorant Night Market is quite straightforward. Follow the steps mentioned below:
- Look for the Night Market Availability
- First, confirm if the Night Market is currently live. You’ll see a special icon, a card with colorful lights in the top-right corner of the main menu. Riot usually announces the event in advance on Valorant’s social media channels and in-game notifications.
- Open Your Night Market
- Click on the icon of Night Market. You can see six cards face down. Click on them to reveal your Night Market skins. These are fixed for the whole length of the event, and rerolls or refreshes cannot be done.
- Look Over Your Offers
- Carefully examine the skins you’ve gotten. Such promotions normally have skins from Select, Deluxe, and Premium bundles. Beside each product, there is a reduced VP (Valorant Points) price displayed, which tends to be between 20% and 50% reduced from the standard cost.
- Check Your Valorant Points (VP) Balance
- Ensure that you have sufficient VP before proceeding with a buy. If insufficient, visit the in-game Store, choose VP purchase, and select the intended quantity. Various modes of payment like credit cards, UPI, etc., can be availed based on your location.
- Purchase the Skin
- After selecting your preferred skin, click on it and purchase using your VP. Once you’ve confirmed the purchase, the skin will be stored in your inventory and can be worn from the Collection tab.
