Valorant's weapon skins are considered one of the key selling points of the game. The developer put in a lot of effort to provide players with some of the most unique skins, which can be acquired through the bundle or the Battlepass itself. All these skins tend to follow a particular theme, ranging from sci-fi, military, space, etc.

In 2023, Valorant released 19 separate bundles and 18 Battlepass skinlines for its players to experience. While not all of them were received positively, some have received much praise. This article will list down the five best Valorant skin collections in 2023.

The Araxys collection was an instant hit with the players after its release. The weapons here have very detailed and sophisticated animations as they react and shift their parts while reloading or inspecting.

The Radiant Entertainment System is an Ultra edition collection released in April 2023 and features skins for the Ghost, Operator, Bulldog, Phantom, and Melee. All the weapons here are available in three variants: Bazooka Badger, Dance Fever, and K.nock O.ut!!.

For this skinline, the developer wanted to show their love for retro arcade video games of the past. Due to this, every variant has been inspired by a specific type of arcade game and has unique kill finishers. These three variants also differ in their sound effects and animations. In a way, purchasing the Radiant Entertainment System is somewhat like owning three different Valorant skins.


4) Valiant Hero

Valiant Hero is a Premium edition collection released in October 2023 and features skins for the Ares, Operator, Ghost, Vandal, and Melee. This bundle is available in four different variants: Default, Sunset, Dusk, and Night, with a price of 1775 VP for each gun.

The Valiant Hero collection is Chinese-themed and based around Sun Wukong, or Monkey King, to most people. While the skinline has beautiful subtle visual effects, its most impressive aspect is the kill finisher. In it, the final enemy is hit by many spirit forms and, finally, by the Monkey King himself.
