Riot Games has unveiled the first 'ultra' peel for Valorant. The four-slice Elderflame skin set turns thespian's weapons into (epic-looking) fiery dragons, but information technology doesn't come cheap – costing a whopping $100.

Valorant has a pricing tier for its skins (opens in new tab), ranging from select edition skins (costing 875 VP or Valorant Points) to exclusive editions (which vary in price). The 2d-virtually expensive skins Valorant offers are the ultra edition skins, costing 2475 VP each. And then, to pick up the Elderflame peel set up bundle (of iv skins), it volition set you back 9900 VP.

Valorant Points are sold in bundles and to get the 9900VP for the full Elderflame set, you're looking at around $100 (roughly £90) – or $25 (£25) per pare.

And there's more

For some, it may be hard to justify spending this amount of money on in-game skins, particularly given that you don't fifty-fifty go the best version of the skin set.

In Valorant, Radianite is used to upgrade skins, allowing players access to new animations, furnishings and other cool features. Radianite is earned through the Valorant battle pass, but that means to truly become the about out of your Elderflame pare yous not only demand to buy the set for $100 – you also need to purchase the battle pass.

These microtransactions aren't a huge surprise given that Valorant is costless-to-play, and Riot Games will need to make their money somewhere, but it still stings. Nonetheless, compared to the likes of CS:Get, this price is somewhat mild – although CS:GO players ofttimes trade lucrative skins, while Valorant skins are untradeable.

We're expecting Valorant exclusive skins – with their varying price – to cost somewhat more than than this. But, considering these skins accept no effect on player operation, they really are for those who just want to expect extra wink.

The Elderflame peel set volition be available in Valorant from July 10.
