The 2025 VALORANT Champions bundle has officially been revealed by Riot Games and is set to become one of this year’s most coveted in-game collections. Featuring a dazzling gold-and-black Vandal and, for the first time, a flex item, the bundle launches a few weeks before VALORANT Champions 2025 and directly supports esports teams.

Bundle Contents and Release Dates

The latest Champions bundle includes the eye-catching Champions Vandal and a striking butterfly knife, both themed around the Champions event aesthetic.

For the first time in VALORANT history, the bundle adds a Flex item. This one resembles the Champions trophy, along with a counter as seen on the video. Although the purpose of the counter is unknown, it is speculated that it shows how many kills a player has left to reach the top of the leaderboard.

Fans will also find a spray, a player card, and a gun buddy rounding out the collection. The bundle will be available in the VALORANT store from September 4th to October 9th, 2025, marking a limited-time opportunity for players to secure these exclusive cosmetics.

Visuals and Style

The Champions 2025 Vandal boasts a luxurious blend of gold, black, and red hues with distinct glowing highlights and intricate designs. The skins feature a radiant metallic finish accented with Champions branding. Every kill with this weapon will be accompanied by a special animated banner effect, emitting a glowing red aura and the signature Champions iconography, enhancing the prestige of every elimination.

The butterfly knife matches this visual philosophy, offering a new animation and intricate golden etchings, making it highly desirable for melee enthusiasts.

Pricing and Esports Impact

Based on previous years’ pricing, the Champions 2025 bundle is expected to cost around 6,100 VP (about USD $65). As has become tradition, a portion of all bundle proceeds will go directly to VCT partner teams, further emphasizing Riot Games' commitment to supporting its global esports ecosystem. Notably, last year’s similar bundle enabled Riot to share over $44.3 million with participating teams, and 2025 looks poised to repeat or surpass this milestone.

The Champions 2025 bundle sets a standard for event cosmetics, blending high-end design with esports support. Players not only gain premium rewards but also contribute to the competitive scene’s growth and sustainability, cementing this collection as one of VALORANT’s most significant annual releases.
