In Valorant, the skins are often very beautiful and on our side, we have a soft spot for fire-breathing dragon weapons and for weapons paying homage to DJ Zedd. But in life, nothing is perfect and there is still a little problem… skins are expensive and you can easily spend a lot of money to have fun. Wouldn’t it be a shame when we play a game free-to-play ?
On Reddit, a certain Yuuka_Chan had fun calculating the necessary amount that you have to be ready to spend to own all the skins in the game. As you might expect, the numbers are skyrocketing. Everyone is free to spend the money as they see fit. But on our side, we prefer to play with the free skins and make the rats at the end of each round to pick up the weapons of our eliminated enemies.
A sum that exceeds 5000 dollars!
Going by the research of the Reddit user, one would have to shell out $5,658 to own all the skins of the game. He took into account Regular skins, Legacy Skins and Skins included in the Battle Pass (based on the price of the Battle Pass). The sum seems huge, but when you know that a knife skin (the most expensive) can be worth up to 5350 Valorant Point (more than 50 dollars)…
Obviously, having all the skins in the game isn’t much use, since you can only play with one skin per weapon at the same time (Vandal, Judge, Odin…). In addition, there are bound to be some in the lot that you do not like. But if ever a collector passes by, the information remains interesting and we hope that he is ready to take out the blue card. Finally, note that the total price was calculated by purchasing the skins individually, without taking into account the Bundles. You can indeed have reductions when you buy an entire collection.
At least 76 days to buy everything?
We also learned that it was necessary at least 76 days to buy all skins. Valorant works on a store that rotates with 4 skin offers each time (and a Bundle offer). Since there are 302 unique skins, the calculation is quickly done. Be careful though, buying everything in 76 days presupposes that there are no duplicates in the offers… In addition to being reactive and having the necessary cash every day!
