Will Valorant's Overdrive skinline have special effects, variants, and finishers?

Based on the latest leaks, the Overdrive skinline could be classified within the Exclusive rarity tier of weapon collections. The leaks reveal cosmetic alterations made to the weapon's overall design, accompanied by unique sound and visual effects. The weapons appear to boast amazing animations and a showstopping finisher.

These variants can be unlocked by upgrading the skins for each weapon item in the bundle using Radianite points and then equipping all the special effects.

How much will the Overdrive skin bundle cost in Valorant?

As of now, Riot Games has not officially disclosed the cost of the skin bundle. However, based on leaked information about the Overdrive Blade melee, which emulates the aesthetics of the RGX 11z Pro Blade melee skin from the RGX 11z Pro collection, it is likely to fall within that same pricing category.

Following the pattern, the Exclusive tier skinline stands as the second-most costly set of gun skins in Valorant, with a price range of 2175 to 2475 VP. This places the total cost of the entire bundle in the range of 8700 to 9900 VP.

Individually, the melee skin within Exclusive-tier bundles in the game is priced at 4350 to 5350 VP. However, the complete bundle not only includes the knife skin but also comes with additional cosmetic items such as sprays, player cards, and a gun buddy, all at no extra charge.
