Valorant Team-branded skins to be introduced next year

It’s official! Valorant will introduce team-branded skins in 2023, giving fans what they have been asking for.

With the introduction of the Valorant franchising system, Riot Games committed to giving more monetary support to its partners. Splitting the revenue from in-game item sales was one of the ways they found to do it.

This was already tested with the Champions bundles and was a huge success. Half of the money that the Champions bundle generated was equally spread among teams.

So, it makes sense to introduce team-branded skins. This way, Valorant teams have yet one more way to generate revenue.

Without further ado, let’s find out everything about it.

As mentioned above, this is something fans have been waiting for a long time. It gives them the chance to own skins from their favourite team and show their support in-game. Furthermore, it also benefits the VCT partnered teams.

With Esports going through some tough times, organizations need every additional revenue stream they can get. So, introducing team-branded skins couldn’t have come at a better time.

All of the skins’ purchases will be monetized via microtransactions, with a percentage of the sale going to the team.
