A new era of VALORANT was embarked upon in Episode 5, as Riot introduced a brand-new map into rotation. The underwater Atlantis take on the Portuguese capital city, Lisbon, was flooded into the game under the name of Pearl, and has since knocked Split out of the competitive rotation too. With that dominant arrival, the semantic of "the best of the best" is portrayed throughout the entirety of Act 1, and specifically highlighted in the VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass.

"Thematics that were powerful and dynamic," is the name of the game in the new VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass, detailed Riot Games Producer, Laura Baltzer. "With this battlepass, we wanted to create items that made players feel like they were the best of the best. Look closely and you’ll find all sorts of items that will help you express dominance on your path to victory."

Boasting three skin lines and a wealth of customisation features and Radianite Points, the Battlepass has come as one of the most staked subscriptions yet. Here's all you need to know about the VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass, details, rewards, and skins.

VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass Skins

Three skin lines are available in the VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass, which include the Shimmer, Spitfire, and Task Force 809 ranges. 

VALORANT Shimmer Skins

The VALORANT Shimmer skin range boasts a pink Unicorn-focused base. However, the line can also be upgraded to have other colour variations, with a rich gold/black, a deep red/white, and an aquatic blue/navy design all available.

Valorant Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass Gun Buddys

A total of ten gun buddies are up for grabs in the VALORANT Episode 5 Act 1 Battlepass. The Perfect Pattern (voodoo doll-esque) Buddy is a free reward too, although players might fancy flexing their dominance with the 1v5 dumbells in the Heavy Lifting Buddy.

Finally, player cards are on the craze after the release of the Alpha Threat Card, and players will be treated to 13 cards throughout the 50 tiers, including Operation: Vacation which comes for free. The Enter the Duelists card (Jett) comes at tier 50 and there are few more frightening sights than a master of the Jett.
