The upcoming VALORANT V26 Act 4 will be accompanied by the Blackspyre skin collection and the seasonal Battlepass. While the season's main gameplay highlights are the brand‑new map Summit and the new Retake game mode, the cosmetics department is equally well‑stocked, as the game will also welcome a premium skin collection featuring a unique melee weapon.

The Blackspyre skin collection is scheduled to arrive on June 24, alongside VALORANT Season 2026 // Act 4. Below is everything we know so far about the upcoming bundle and the Act 4 Battle Pass.

Blackspyre Skin Collection

Skins in the Blackspyre collection feature a design that blends sci‑fi and mystical elements. Upon closer inspection, the gun skins, in particular, have a futuristic build, while the melee weapons emanate a dark aura, consistent with the skinline's mystical theme.

The official bundle image appears to show human silhouettes being pulled into the abyss, just like the Reaper skinline's finisher. This could suggest that the Blackspyre skins feature a similar finisher or follow a similar thematic direction.

VALORANT Blackspyre Skin Collection Season 2026 Act 4

The Blackspyre bundle consists of skins for the following weapons:

  • Phantom
  • Sheriff
  • Spectre
  • Ares
  • Melee (The Divide)

The initial reveal of the bundle shows two distinct melee weapons. This doesn't necessarily mean they are two different skins; one may be an upgraded version of the other. While one melee appears to be a sword, the other resembles a scythe.

VALORANT Season 2026 // Act 4 Battlepass

Similar to previous editions, the V26 Act 4 Battlepass will cost 1,000 VP and feature several free as well as premium rewards. Here are some highlights of the Battlepass’ free and paid tracks: 

Free Track

  • Sky Reaper Ghost
  • Heal Up Squad Card (Lore)
  • Binding Thread Buddy
  • On Your Feet Spray

Paid Track

  • Sky Reaper Sword (Melee)
  • Tacti-Guild Phantom
  • Intertwine Guardian
  • Boom Ball Flex
  • Unstoppable // Iso Card
  • Soft and Deadly Card
  • Blep Spray
  • Unimpressed Spray
  • Prooooowler Buddy

V26 Act 4 Release Date

VALORANT V26 // Act 4 will release with Patch 13.00 on June 23. Alongside the new battlepass, the patch brings a new map and a new mode. The Blacksprye will follow soon-after with an expected release date of June 24.
