The VALORANT Run It Back V26 bundle has leaked online, bringing back three fan-favorite weapon skins with a purchasing twist that has already sparked debate in the community. The leak comes from the popular data-mining account VALORANT Leaks & News on X, which shared the bundle’s contents on August 31, 2026.
This article covers every skin in the bundle, the controversial bundle-only purchase rule, and when players can expect it to go live. Riot Games has not officially confirmed the bundle yet, so all details below come from leaks.
VALORANT Run It Back V26 Bundle Skins
The Run It Back V26 bundle brings together 3 of the most recognizable weapon skins in VALORANT’s history.
- Elderflame Operator (2,475 VP)
- Singularity Sheriff (2,175 VP)
- RGX 11z Pro Vandal (1,775 VP)
The RGX 11z Pro Vandal is closely tied to Ilia “something” Petrov, who regularly uses the skin in competitive play. The Elderflame Operator is a fan favorite often seen in the hands of Jake “Boaster” Howlett. The Singularity Sheriff is not linked to a specific pro player, but it remains one of the most iconic Sheriff skins from VALORANT’s early days.
Bundle-Only Purchase Restriction
Weapon bundles in VALORANT have historically let players buy the full set at a discount or pick up individual skins separately. The leaked Run It Back V26 bundle breaks that pattern.
According to the leak, players will not be able to buy the RGX 11z Pro Vandal, Singularity Sheriff, or Elderflame Operator on their own. The only way to get any single skin from this bundle is to purchase the entire collection.
Brazil is expected to be the one exception, where local consumer regulations require individual purchase options.
Expected Price and Release Date
Riot has not announced an official price for the bundle. Buying all 3 skins individually would cost 6,425 VP based on their standard rates.
Since the bundle blocks individual purchases, Riot is expected to offer a discounted flat price for the full set. The previous 3-weapon Run It Back set, Run It Back // V25, released in December 2025 at a discounted 4,840 VP, gives an idea of what V26 could cost.
The bundle is expected to release on September 3, 2026. That date lines up with Riot’s usual pattern of releasing new cosmetic collections every 2 to 3 weeks, and falls 16 days after the Aeris collection launched on August 18, 2026.
