• Bundle Price: 8,700 VP

When the Glitchpop bundle was first introduced in patch 1.05, players certainly liked the concept of the skin very much, mainly because of the first unique finisher animation of Valorant. However, the players did not like the weapons released through the first bundle. This led Riot Games to release Glitchpop 2.0 skins with a bundle of Vandal, Phantom, Operator, Classic, and Axe skins. The Glitchpop 2.0 bundle was indeed one of the most liked bundles due to the vibrant outlook of the weapons with a very pleasing sci-fi theme. The individual kill sounds and the SFX of shooting the gun are also very pleasing to the ears. Glitchpop 2.0 also did not return to the stores; however, players can buy the individual weapon skins whenever they are available in their store for the following prices.

• Classic: 2,175 VP
• Phantom: 2,175 VP
• Vandal: 2,175 VP
