Valorant’s Act III is live for the NA/BR/LATAM regions. KR/JP/OCE/APAC will follow. Lastly, the EU/TR/MENA/CIS regions will receive Act III access. The start of Act III sees a new map in the form of Icebox alongside a new patch with changes to Deathmatch and competitive matchmaking. And of course, Act III comes with a new Battlepass with spicy skins, buddies, player cards, titles, and sprays.
The Valorant Act III Battlepass has 10 Chapters that consist of 5 tiers each. That makes for a total of 50 tiers and several free Chapter Rewards along the way. Ruin, Surge, and Serenity are the three skin sets within the Act III Battlepass, adding to the assortment of skins already released in Valorant.

Stand Out Item: Ruin Marshal
The Ruin skin set in the Act III Battlepass is absolutely beautiful. The Ruin Marshal is instantly unlocked when the Battlepass is purchased. The black and gold with hints of red will look even smoother when tagging heads with the sniper.

Stand Out Item: Jack O’ Lantern Buddy
Halloween is on its way and the Act III Battlepass is recognizing that. The second unlockable item in Chapter 2 is the Jack O’ Lanter Buddy. Its sinister smile will look good hanging from the side of any weapon, but will definitely stand out on darker-themed weapons.

Stand Out Item: Serenity Judge
The Serenity Judge is the first Serenity weapon found in the Battlepass. Seeing the shotguns get more Battlepass love is great. The mint green and gold makes for a fine skin set.

Stand Out Item: Stay Safe, Wash Your Hands Spray
The other rewards in Chapter 4 are great, but the free spray stands out the most. The COVID-19 pandemic is still affecting parts of the world and Riot Games is showing great awareness here. Viper switches her mask for a surgical one, soaping up for the proper amount of hand washing time.

Stand Out Item: Potato Aim Buddy
Riot Games continues showing their awareness of the world and gaming with the Act II Battlepass. The Potato Aim Buddy is a hilarious nod towards the players who sometimes struggle with their aim. It is a nice touch to allow gamers to poke fun at themselves.

Stand Out Item: Ruin Guardian
The Guardian is beautiful weapon. Adding the Ruin skin to it makes it even more fun to look at. It is an underrated weapon, even with the changes made. Chapter 6 of the Act III Battlepass gives another spectacular Ruin weapon.

Stand Out Item: Mic Drop Spray
Animated sprays are one of the best parts of Valorant. Chapter 7 of the Act III Battlepass rewards players with an animated Mic Drop Spray. Dropping the mic is a way to signal that you have just verbally decimated your adversary. In Valorant, a solid clutch play will surely see this sprayed onto a wall in order to add insult to injury.

Free Reward
Stand Out Item: Octo Attack 2 Spray
Chapter 8 gives players another animated spary. This one, though, is the free chapter reward. Reminiscent of classic arcade hits like Space Invaders, this spray sees a giant octopus getting slammed with lasers. It’s fantastic.
Premium Rewards
Free Reward
Stand Out Item: Ruin Vandal
The Ruin set found throughout the Act III Battlepass is one of the better sets in all of Valorant. It is sleek and simple. There is no over the top gimmick with it. The Ruin Vandal is just perfect.

Stand Out Item: Discotech Buddy
The final chapter of the Act III Battlepass has some amazing rewards, including the Ruin Dagger. The last buddy found within, though, is the stand out item of Chapter 10. It is a disco ball and it spins constantly. That’s all it needs to do to be great.
Overall, the Act III Battlepass has some of the better rewards seen throughout each Valorant Act so far. Jump in when Act III hits your region and start grinding through the tiers. As per usual, the Battlepass costs 1,000 VALORANT Points.
