Elderflame bundle was released in the Valorant store almost five years ago as the first Ultra Edition weapon skins with a reasonably high price tag compared to other collections. Unique animations and variants were able to grab most players’ attention and still remain the favourite skin bundle of most players in Valorant. With that said, let’s find out if it’s still worth buying and what you need to know before buying the Elderflame bundle in Valorant.
Elderflame Bundle
Elderflame Ultra Edition Valorant skin collection turned the Valorant skins to a whole other level with Dragon featuring effects. Even though it was released in 2020 with the Valorant Episode 2 for an unbelievably high price tag, it was still one of the most sold weapon skin bundles that year in Valorant.
Release Date
Riot Games released the Elderflame bundle on July 10, 2020. This marked Valorant’s very first Ultra Edition skin line. Since then, we’ve seen other Ultra skins like Spectrum, Protocol 781-A, and Araxys hit the store. But even in 2025, many players still consider Elderflame the most iconic collection in the game’s history, standing strong alongside newer releases like Kurunami.
Edition
Elderflame belongs to the Ultra Edition tier, the highest and most expensive skin category in Valorant. This exclusive tier packs the most advanced animations and interactive elements you can get. Ultra Edition bundles usually cost 9,900 VP (about $95 USD), which is way pricier than Premium Edition bundles.
Weapons
The Elderflame bundle includes five dragon-themed weapons. Each transforms your boring standard Valorant guns into living, breathing creatures that react to your gameplay. The bundle includes weapon skin,
- Elderflame Vandal
- Elderflame Operator
- Elderflame Frenzy
- Elderflame Judge
- Elderflame Dagger (Melee)
Weapon Skin Accessories
The Elderflame bundle comes with matching accessories that complete the dragon theme. Players receive a player card featuring the majestic dragon design, gun buddies that dangle from your weapons, and dragon-themed sprays to mark your territory in-game. These accessories are included free with the bundle purchase, adding extra value to the collection. If bought separately, the prices are:
- Elderflame Player Card: 375 VP
- Elderflame Gun Buddy: 475 VP
- Elderflame Spray: 325 VP
Price
The Elderflame bundle costs 9,900 VP ($95 USD, €85 EUR, ₽7,900 Rubal, $143 AUD, ₱4,750 PHP). Buying the complete bundle saves you about 4,500 VP compared to getting each skin separately. Individual weapon pricing breaks down as:
- Elderflame Vandal: 2,475 VP
- Elderflame Operator: 2,475 VP
- Elderflame Frenzy: 2,475 VP
- Elderflame Judge: 2,475 VP
- Elderflame Dagger: 4,950 VP
Weapon Upgrade Levels
Each Elderflame skin evolves through four different levels, adding new animations and effects as you upgrade. You’ll need Radianite Points to unlock these features. The base skin looks cool, but the real magic happens when you max out all the levels and your dragon weapons come to life with unique animations and finishers.
Skin Upgrade Levels
- Level 1: Base dragon form with custom model and animations
- Level 2: Custom firing sounds and muzzle flash effects
- Level 3: Custom equip and reload animations featuring the dragon moving and breathing
- Level 4: Kill finisher and kill banner featuring a dragon breathing fire
Melee Upgrade Levels
- Level 1: Base dragon dagger model
- Level 2: Custom equip animation with dragon movement
- Level 3: Visual effects and animation enhancements
- Level 4: Inspection animation showing the dragon interacting with the player
Radianite Points
You’ll need 75 Radianite Points to upgrade all Elderflame skin levels for one-weapon skin. Each level upgrade may cost 10 RP, and one variant upgrade can cost 15 VP. Therefore, for variant upgrades, 60 RP (4 Variantsx10RP each) and 40 RP (4 Levels x 10 RP Each) would be spent for level upgrades, total for one weapon skin, and 100 RP would be needed for the full weapon upgrade.
How to Buy Elderflame Bundle in 2025
In 2025, you can only get the Elderflame bundle through Valorant’s daily offers rotation. The store refreshes every 24 hours with four random skin offers. This gives you a chance to grab individual Elderflame weapons when they appear. The complete bundle occasionally returns during special events, but these appearances are rare.
Is it Worth Buying Now?
Is it worth dropping nearly $100 on dragon-shaped pixels? If you love unique animations and standout designs, absolutely. The Elderflame bundle remains one of Valorant’s most impressive collections, with the Vandal skin particularly popular among players. The dragon transformations and detailed animations still turn heads even years after release. While expensive, these skins have kept their “wow factor” better than most.
Conclusion
The Elderflame bundle was released on July 10, 2020, for 9,900 VP, which cost around $95 USD or €85 EUR with Vandal, Judge, Frenzy, Operator, and Dagger skins each with a value of 2,475 VP (4,950 VP for the melee). As accessories, player cards, gun buddies and sprays were given for free with the bundle. Even though it’s been almost five years since its release, it’s one of the most used Valorant skin collections in the game, apart from collections like Prime and Reaver and newer ones like Kurunami.
