How Many Skins Are in Valorant: Complete Guide

Valorant skins are cosmetic modifications that change how weapons look and sometimes sound in-game. Players can equip these skins to make their weapons appear more visually appealing, but they don't provide any competitive advantages or gameplay benefits compared to default weapon skins.

Riot Games has consistently added new skin collections since Valorant's release in June 2020. The game now contains hundreds of weapon skins spanning various themes, from minimalist designs to major collections featuring unique animations, sound effects, and kill finishers.

Players often ask about the exact number of skins available, their costs, and the different ways to obtain them. In this article, we'll explore the complete breakdown of Valorant's skin collection, including total counts, pricing structures, and acquisition methods.

How Many Skins Are in Valorant

Valorant currently features 1,159 weapon skins across all categories, with Prelude to Chaos being the latest collection released in patch 11.06. The skin distribution varies significantly between different weapon types, reflecting their popularity and usage frequency in competitive matches.

Weapon		Number of Skins
	Classic	145
	Shorty	33
	Frenzy	49
	Ghost	60
	Sheriff	58
	Stinger	39
	Spectre	68
	Bucky	38
	Judge	50
	Bulldog	55
	Guardian	54
	Phantom	89
	Vandal	88
	Marshal	44
	Outlaw	16
	Operator	54
	Ares	39
	Odin	32
	Melee	148

Melee weapons lead the collection with 148 different skins, followed closely by the Classic pistol at 145 skins. This makes sense since melee weapons are always equipped, and the Classic serves as the default sidearm for all players. The Outlaw sniper rifle has the fewest options with only 16 skins, primarily because it was added to the game more recently compared to other weapons in the roster.

Valorant Skin Rarities by Price

Valorant organizes its weapon skins into six distinct rarity tiers, each with different pricing structures and visual complexity levels. The pricing system uses Valorant Points, the game's premium currency, and varies between gun skins and melee weapons.

Rarity		Gun Price (VP)	Melee Price (VP)
	Select	875	1,750
	Deluxe	1,275	2,550
	Premium	1,775	3,550
	Exclusive	2,175	4,350
		2,375	5,350
		2,675
	Ultra	2,475	4,950
		2,975	5,950

Exclusive and Ultra editions command the highest prices due to their visual overhauls, unique animations, custom sound effects, and special finisher effects when securing eliminations. Unlike lower tiers with fixed pricing, Exclusive and Ultra rarity prices may vary depending on the specific collection and the complexity of features included.
