The bundle maintains full compatibility across all VALORANT platforms, including PC and console versions. The water effects and animations perform consistently regardless of platform, ensuring all players can enjoy the complete SplashX experience.

The SplashX collection embraces a vibrant pool party aesthetic reminiscent of childhood water gun fights and summer fun. The bundle features bright, retro summer colors including vivid pink and turquoise, creating glossy surfaces with bubbly textures and paint-drip effects that capture the essence of water toys and squirt guns. This theme makes it one of VALORANT's most lighthearted and playful skin collections to date.

When does the VALORANT SplashX Bundle release?

Riot Games officially revealed the SplashX bundle on July 29, 2025, through their "PUMP IT UP // SplashX Skin Reveal Trailer". The bundle's release coincided with VALORANT's major Patch 11.02 update, which introduced Unreal Engine 5 to the game.

Price and Availability

The bundle follows Exclusive tier pricing, with the complete collection estimated at approximately 8,700 VP. This places it in the premium category alongside other high-end VALORANT skin bundles. Individual weapon skins are priced between 1,775-2,175 VP each, making the bundle purchase more economical for players wanting the complete collection.

When compared to purchasing items individually, the bundle offers significant savings by including additional cosmetics like the gun buddy, spray, and player card at no extra cost. This pricing structure follows VALORANT's standard approach of incentivizing complete bundle purchases over individual skin acquisitions.
