VALORANT Episode 4 Act 1 Battle Pass preview

VALORANT’s Episode 4 kicks off on Jan. 11 and brings with it a host of new content, including a brand new Battle Pass. The Act 1 Battle Pass will contain weapon skins, player cards, gun buddies and sprays, just like in previous passes. The price also remains 1,000 VALORANT Points, or roughly $10.

The Episode 4, Act 1 Battle Pass also leans into seasonal themes with a heavy Valentine’s Day inspiration, as this Act will go through February. Players can rock “Be Mine” cards as well as a few other holiday-themed items.

“We leaned a lot more into holidays with the previous Battle Pass, so we decided to have some holiday fun with this one as well,” Preeti Khanolkar, Senior Producer at Riot Games, said in a press release.

The three main skin lines are called Velocity, Schema and Hydrodip. Between them, they include skins for every gun with the exception of the Operator, Classic, Ghost and Ares.

“We wanted the gun skins in this Battle Pass to stand out, especially the Velocity set which has a Phantom, Spectre, Shorty, Bulldog and a karambit-style melee — all of which have four color variants,” Sean Marinos, the Associate Art Director, said in the press release. “Several of the skin sets also have accessories that accompany them, including the Hydrodip buddy, spray, and card, the Schema card, and the Velocity card and Gun Buddy.”
