We already knew VALORANT Mobile would adopt its skins collection from PC. But as per the latest leaks, we now understand the various ways these cosmetics will be integrated into the upcoming mobile game.

Following suit with other leading mobile titles, Valorant Mobile will have free mission rewards, seasonal events, random crates and spins, periodic discounts, and a 30-day Battle Pass-while adapting pricing and promos for play on the move.
Mobile players start fresh with an empty inventory and no cross-account skin transfers from PC but get cheaper bundles as per the latest leaks. Premium skins will cost about $10-$20 with extra bundle discounts, so spending on Valorant Mobile will be noticeably more pocket-friendly compared to PC.
VALORANT Mobile will also have low hardware requirements, with most budget devices able to run the game at maximum FPS.
VALORANT Mobile’s Exclusive Skin Pricing and Unlock Systems
Free Events on Mobile gives cosmetics through daily and weekly missions, similar to PC’s event tracks. Lucky Spins and crates lets players unlock randomly, while seasonal events refresh the shop with new challenges and rewards. The Battle Pass resets every 30 days, offering free and premium tracks for tiered unlocks. On certain days, discounts will drop randomly to lower VP costs further.

Cheaper Bundles for Mobile Players
Leaks from mobile socials and industry blogs confirm PC skins will cost less on mobile: weapon skins are expected to cost around $10-$20, and bundle packages have additional percentage discounts, making it a better deal. This is in contrast with PC’s pricing-single Select Edition skins start at $7-$10, and bundles easily exceed $30-$40 per set.
Key Differences from PC
On PC, players purchase directly in the Store, get Featured and Night Market discounts, and can use skins across PC and console. Mobile, however, keeps inventories separate. Transfers of PC or console skins are not supported, keeping each platform’s economy siloed. Mobile UI is optimized for smaller screens: full-screen previews and streamed video highlights conserve device storage.
What Mobile Players Should Expect
Mobile’s short sessions will be filled with frequent, low-barrier missions and themed events meant for quick play. Though veterans lose cross-platform progression, they gain a budget-friendly start: discounted bundles, mobile-only promos, and a solid Battle Pass system. Watch in-app news-bundle drop days and Lucky Spin refresh timers are the best ways to maximise value and grow your collection fast.
The VALORANT Mobile playtest in China is scheduled to commence in June 2025, as announced during Tencent’s SPARK 2025 event.
