The bundle is priced at 8,700 VP, with individual gun skins at 2,175 VP and the melee skin at 5,350 VP.

Patch 9.11: Major Updates

The latest patch, 9.11, brings significant changes to the game:

• Neon Nerf: After months of dominance, the agent Neon has received substantial nerfs to balance her impact in matches.

• Ping System Rework: The ping system has been overhauled to improve in-game communication and reduce confusion during matches.

Valorant's continuous updates keep the game fresh and engaging for its player base. The introduction of Agent 27, the 'Outlaw' weapon, the Araxys 2.0 skin bundle, and the changes in Patch 9.11 are set to enhance the gaming experience. Stay tuned for more updates as Valorant continues to evolve.
