Best Valorant Phantom skins 2026: our top picks
We ranked by what a skin gives you for its price: upgrade levels, a finisher, colour variants and whether you can still get it. Looks are your call, so treat this as a shortlist.
| Skin | Tier | Store price | Why it makes the list |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reaver Phantom | Premium | 1,775 VP | Four levels with VFX, animation and a finisher, plus three colour variants, at the fixed Premium price. |
| Oni Phantom | Premium | 1,775 VP | Four levels ending in a finisher and three variants. One of only 11 Premium Phantoms with a finisher. |
| Prime//2.0 Phantom | Premium | 1,775 VP | VFX, animation and finisher levels with three variants, again at the Premium price. |
| Ion Phantom | Premium | 1,775 VP | Full four-level path with a finisher. It has no extra colour variants, so you are buying one fixed look. |
| Glitchpop Phantom | Exclusive | Varies | VFX, animation and finisher levels and three variants, in one of the Exclusive lines that covers Vandal, Phantom and Operator. |
| RGX 11z Pro Phantom | Exclusive | Varies | Five levels, and the only Phantom in the game data with a kill counter level. |
| Kuronami Phantom | Exclusive | Varies | New this year: Riot posted the Kuronami reveal trailer on 27 April 2026. Sound, animation and finisher levels, three variants. |
| Protocol 781-A Phantom | Ultra | Varies | Five levels, and the only Phantom with a voice-over level. |
| Champions Phantoms | Exclusive | Varies | Limited. Riot says limited Champions items do not return to the store or Night Market. |
Cheapest way to a finisher. Every Phantom with a finisher is Premium or higher. 11 of the 20 Premium Phantoms have one, at 1,775 VP each when they show up in your store; the full list below marks them.
Phantom skin tiers and VP prices
Riot's price tier page fixes three prices and leaves two open. A single skin's tier tells you what it costs when it appears in your rotating store. Bundles are priced separately.
| Tier | Store price (Riot) | Phantom skins | From battle passes | With finisher |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | Varies | 3 | 0 | 3 |
| Exclusive | Varies | 23 | 0 | 22 |
| Premium | 1,775 VP | 20 | 0 | 11 |
| Deluxe | 1,275 VP | 37 | 16 | 0 |
| Select | 875 VP | 23 | 16 | 0 |
| Total | 106 | 32 | 36 |
Upgrade levels and colour variants are not included in the base unlock. Riot describes Radianite Points as the currency that lets you evolve your guns cosmetically, and you buy them with VP or earn some through the battle pass. Only 42 of the 106 Phantoms have more than one level, and 47 have extra colour variants.
Every Valorant Phantom skin: the full list
All 106 Phantom skins in the patch 13.08 game data, sorted by tier, then name. “Levels” includes the base level; the brackets name what the upgrades add. “Variants” are extra colourways. The last column gives the battle pass act and its start month; a dash means the skin is not tied to a battle pass, and the tier price applies when Riot sells it in the store.

The limited Champions Phantoms
Three Champions bundles used the Phantom: 2022, 2024 and 2026. Riot's price tier page calls these limited-time skin lines and says that once they are gone, they will not return to the rotating store or the Night Market. That makes them the only Phantoms you cannot expect to see again.
| Skin | Upgrade levels | Variants | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Champions 2022 Phantom | Inspect and kill effect, finisher, top-frag effect | 0 | Released for Champions 2022, held in Istanbul. |
| Champions 2024 Phantom | Inspect and kill effect, finisher, top-frag effect | 0 | Same level structure as 2022. |
| Champions 2026 Phantom | Sound, inspect and kill effect, top-frag effect | 0 | Released for Champions Shanghai. The only Exclusive Phantom without a finisher level. |
The bundles also fund the teams. Riot's Champions 2025 announcement says that, as in previous years, 50 % of net proceeds from the collection are shared with VCT teams.

New Phantom skins in 2026
Six battle pass Phantoms and several store lines arrived this year. Dates are when Riot posted the reveal trailer on its news feed, or the act start in the game data.
| Skin | Tier | How | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ayakashi Phantom | Exclusive | Line with a Ghost and a dual blade melee (trailer) | 6 Jan 2026 |
| Montage Phantom | Deluxe | Battle pass, 2026 Act I | Jan 2026 |
| Dragon Gate Phantom | Select | Battle pass, 2026 Act II | Mar 2026 |
| Kuronami Phantom | Exclusive | Kuronami returned with a Phantom, Operator, Guardian, Ghost and a kunai melee (trailer) | 27 Apr 2026 |
| Insidious Phantom | Select | Battle pass, 2026 Act III | Apr 2026 |
| Blackspyre Phantom | Exclusive | Line with a Sheriff and a Spectre (trailer) | 22 Jun 2026 |
| Tacti-Guild Phantom | Select | Battle pass, 2026 Act IV | Jun 2026 |
| Last Stop Phantom | Select | Battle pass, 2026 Act V | Aug 2026 |
| Champions 2026 Phantom | Exclusive | Limited Champions bundle | 2026 season |
| Solarium Phantom | Deluxe | Battle pass, 2026 Act VI, live now | Oct 2026 |
Neo Frontier is not new, but it came back: Riot's Neo Frontier trailer of 27 July 2026 says the Phantom is part of the “run it back” mega bundle next to the new Vandal, Shorty and Lasso melee.
Battle pass Phantoms
32 Phantoms come from battle passes, from the Kingdom Phantom in Episode 1 Act 1 (June 2020) to the Solarium Phantom in the act that started on 14 October 2026. The game data gives them a Select or Deluxe tag, but they were unlocked through that act's pass rather than sold at the tier price, so Riot's price table does not apply to them.
On an account, a battle pass Phantom tells you the account played that act. It adds no upgrade path: every battle pass Phantom has one level, and 21 of the 32 have no variants.
How to check the Phantom skins on an account
- Open the Collection tab, select the Phantom and read the skin names, not only the thumbnails. Several lines look alike at a glance.
- Open the skin and look at its levels. Levels above the first are unlocked with Radianite, so a skin can be owned without its finisher.
- Check the colour variants. Each extra colourway is a separate unlock.
- For limited skins, compare the name with the table above. Champions 2024 and Champions 2026 are different skins with different levels.
