Riot Games has confirmed that the VALORANT Neo Frontier 2.0 bundle will launch on July 30. This new collection serves as a follow-up to the original Western-themed line, introducing a fresh set of cosmetics for two iconic firearms and a unique melee weapon.
Quick Facts
- Release Date: July 30, 2026
- Included Weapons: Vandal, Shorty, and a Lasso Melee
- Bundle Type: Exclusive (will not appear in the Night Market)
New Weapon Skins and Animations
The Neo Frontier 2.0 collection maintains the aesthetic of the original series, offering both classic Wild West designs and sci-fi variants. Players can switch between these two looks even after fully upgrading a skin. While the sci-fi versions feature color variants, the classic looks retain audio effects without visual VFX.
Riot has introduced specific animations for the new additions:
- Shorty: Features a flip pullout and reload animation, similar to the original Marshal.
- Vandal: Includes a mag spin reload and custom inspect animations.
- Lasso Melee: A one-of-a-kind melee weapon that allows players to spin the lasso during inspection and whip it during attacks.
Notably, the lasso melee includes a unique music track during its inspect animation, which changes depending on whether the player is using the old or sci-fi version of the skin.
Pricing and Availability
While official pricing has not been disclosed, individual gun skins in the original Neo Frontier line were priced at 2,175 VP, with the melee at 4,350 VP. Riot Games will offer a mega bundle, which includes the new items alongside the original Neo Frontier Sheriff, Marshal, and Phantom, providing a discounted price for the full collection.
As an Exclusive bundle, players should expect the collection to have a limited-time run in the shop. Once the bundle leaves the store, it may appear in daily rotations, but it is excluded from the Night Market.
