Top 5 Valorant Skins in 2025 – And How You Can Earn Them for Free

Valorant skins in 2025 are more than just cosmetics. They’re art. From dragons and EDM shows to arcade machines and occult blades, Riot has turned skin design into a full-on spectacle. But with flash comes price, and these skins don’t come cheap. The good news? You can earn Valorant Points (VP) without spending real money with Buff.

Let’s dive into the top 5 skins that players are chasing this year, and how you can unlock them while simply doing what you already love: playing the game.

1. Radiant Entertainment System

Neon arcade nostalgia with mini-games, music, and animated finishers

This Ultra-tier bundle is a vibrant explosion of retro gaming vibes. Each weapon features three style variants — a dance game, a fighter, and a side-scroller — with unique soundtracks, reload animations, and over-the-top kill sequences. It’s like playing three arcade games while dominating your lobby.

Why players love it:
The flex factor is off the charts. The visuals, sound effects, and mini-game animations make this skin set a highlight reel on its own.

Price:
11,900 VP (~$100) for the full set. Easily one of the most expensive bundles in the game.

2. Prime Vandal

Sleek, clean, and forever iconic

The Prime Vandal has earned its legendary status — a clean sci-fi aesthetic, crisp audio feedback, and a howling wolf finisher that hits hard every round. It’s polished without being flashy, and that’s what makes it timeless.

Why players love it:
Reliable, stylish, and satisfying to use. Many say the firing sound helps with focus and aim. It’s the gold standard of Vandal skins.

Price:
1,775 VP (~$17) for the skin. Previously part of the Prime bundle, now regularly available in the store rotation.

3. Reaver Vandal

Dark magic meets sharp-edged design

The Reaver Vandal is the definition of “hauntingly beautiful.” Smoky purple effects, deep echoing audio, and a sinister finisher where enemies levitate and disintegrate. It’s edgy in all the right ways.

Why players love it:
The sound design is addictive, and the kill animations are pure drama. The Reaver Karambit from the same bundle is also a top-tier knife skin.

Price:
1,775 VP (~$17) for the Vandal. The full Reaver bundle was around 7,100 VP during its run.

4. Elderflame

Animated dragons that roar, fly, and incinerate

Elderflame was the first Ultra-tier skin bundle and still one of the most jaw-dropping. Your guns turn into literal dragons — they flap their wings, breathe fire, and roar when you reload or secure a kill. It’s not a skin, it’s a performance.

Why players love it:
You’re carrying a dragon into battle. That’s enough. Every reload feels like a cutscene, and the finishers are pure cinematic fire.

Price:
9,900 VP (~$90) for the full bundle. Individual weapons were around 2,475 VP.

5. Spectrum

Futuristic design meets reactive music from Zedd

Created in collaboration with EDM artist Zedd, the Spectrum collection brings music to the battlefield. Lights pulse in sync with your movement and gunfire, and each shot triggers reactive beats. The Phantom finisher drops a laser show and blast of Zedd’s original track.

Why players love it:
It’s a party every time you clutch. Futuristic, clean, and surprisingly hypnotic, Spectrum turns gameplay into a concert.

Price:
10,700 VP for the bundle. Individual weapons like the Phantom cost around 2,675 VP.

How to Get These Skins for Free Using Buff

Premium skins can be pricey, but there’s a smarter way to get them. With Buff, your regular gameplay can turn into real in-game rewards.

  1. Download Buff — It runs via Overwolf in the background and doesn’t affect performance.

  2. Play Valorant — Buff tracks your in-game activity and gives you daily challenges like “Win 2 matches” or “Get 10 kills with a Vandal.”

  3. Earn Buff Points — Complete challenges, rack up points, and claim them in the app.

  4. Redeem for Riot Cards — Exchange your Buff Points for Riot gift cards. Add them to your account for free VP.

  5. Buy the skin you want — When your dream skin appears in the Valorant store, use those VP to grab it.

You’re not grinding meaningless tasks — you’re just playing Valorant like always, but getting rewarded for it.
