When is the next Valorant Night Market (2024)? Dates, schedule & how to get it
Riot GamesThe Night Market in Valorant gives players the chance to get their hands on skins at a reduced price, so it’s always handy to know when the next one is coming.
One of the most loved additions to Valorant since it was released in 2020 has been the Night Market, a bi-monthly store that rotates random weapon skins at a discounted cost.
As a lot of players want to get their hands on different skins, it’s become a hugely anticipated event in the community. If you’re keen to know exactly when the next Night Market is arriving, we’ve got all the details right here.
Riot GamesWhen is the next Valorant Night Market? Dates & Schedule (2024)
The next Valorant Night Market will begin on August 15, 2024, and will run until August 28, 2024.
It will end just after Act 9 Episode 2’s launch on August 28, 2024.
The last Night Market went live at the following times, so expect the upcoming one to arrive at a similar time on August 15:
- 8 PM ET / 1 AM BST / 5:30 AM IST / 2 AM CET
For those playing on PS5 and Xbox Series S/X, it has also been confirmed that the Night Market will go live at the same time on console and PC.
How to access the Night Market
To access to Night Market, simply follow the steps below:
- When the Night Market is available a small card logo will appear on Valorant’s opening screen.
- Navigate to the Night Market logo at the top right-hand corner of the screen.
- Click on the icon, and you’ll have access to all the discounted skins.
- Just turn over each card and it will reveal the weapon skins and the discounted price.
Additionally, the color of the card’s background and the little shape in the bottom right-hand corner will indicate the tier of skin that this is.
What is the Night Market?
Dexerto / Riot GamesThe Night Market is a rotating store that drops at random in-game once during every Act. Six different gun skins are offered to players at a discounted price. Importantly, the skins are entirely randomized.
However, due to particularly scathing criticisms of the feature‘s first run in December 2020, Riot implemented a Bad Luck Protection guarantee to ensure you don’t leave disappointed.
If you don’t own every Premium Edition skin, you will receive at least two Premium skins in your pool. Additionally, you can no longer get two skins for the same weapon to increase the variety on offer.
Twitter: @PlayVALORANTCan I reroll my skins?
Once you have rolled a skin in the Night Market, you cannot change them. While this is a feature that fans have been expressing interest in for some time, Riot has not implemented this.
However, now that it’s clear that the feature will be recurring, getting a bad run of skins will be a little less painful than if it was a one-off event.
