Riot unveils VALORANT Champions 2026 bundle with Phantom and fan melee

Riot Games has officially unveiled the VALORANT Champions 2026 bundle ahead of the season-ending world championship in Shanghai.

The collection features a Phantom skin and a fan-shaped melee weapon, confirming earlier leaks surrounding this year's Champions cosmetic set.

Both weapons include unique animations, visual effects, and designs that change depending on whether the player is attacking or defending.

Champions Aura returns

The defensive-side versions use a white-and-gold design, while the attacking-side variants switch to black and red.

The collection also includes the returning Champions Aura feature, which activates when the player is performing as the best player in the match.

A tournament-themed finisher is included as well.

The bundle will become available through the in-game store on September 22.

VALORANT Champions 2026 begins two days later on September 24 and runs through October 18 in Shanghai.

Sixteen teams from the four international VCT leagues will compete for the world championship and a share of the $2.25 million prize pool.
