VALORANT's Night Market is the perfect time to buy skins for your favorite weapons. While you can always purchase in-game cosmetics at any time, six random skins receive juicy discounts when the Night Market opens in VALORANT.

There isn't a better feeling in the world than buying your favorite VALORANT skin for half its price. Still, Night Market only comes to VALORANT a few times throughout the year. Considering its limited availability when the Night Market is back, you should make the most of it.

When is the next VALORANT Night Market?

The upcoming VALORANT Night Market starts on August 15, 2024, and ends on August 28, lasting for 13 days. 

During this time, VALORANT players from all regions will have access to the Night Market, and hope for good rolls. If you like your Night Market offerings in VALORANT, you can buy them until the Night Market expires. When it returns at a future date, it comes back with new items.

The exact start time for VALORANT Night Market coincides with updates at 8pm ET, 7pm CT, 6pm MT, and 5pm PT.

How does VALORANT's Night Market work?

VALORANT's Night Market has a randomized algorithm. When it opens, players receive six varying offers for skins/cosmetics. This means that your Night Market should often look significantly different from others, making the event unique for everyone.

Regarding rarity, the Night Market system ensures all players get at least one high-value item. However, getting six skins you may not want is still possible.

Does the Night Market refresh?

No, VALORANT's Night Market doesn't refresh or rotate offerings daily. When the Night Market starts, it'll have the same deals until it ends. Night Market will only feature new items and a refreshed collection when it returns at a later date.

If you're currently unhappy with your Night Market picks, your only option is to wait for the next one.

What is the maximum discount on VALORANT's Night Market?

The maximum discount you can get on a VALORANT skin during the Night Market is 49 percent. Overall, the discount range varies between 10 and 49 percent, so if you get a skin whose price is off by close to 49 percent, you may want to buy it just for the value.

Even if I get skins that I don't like in my Night Market, I purchase offers with 40+ percent discount rates to expand my cosmetics collection.

How many guns are in VALORANT's Night Market?

VALORANT Night Market features six gun skins when it's live. Buying any of the offerings won't affect the others, and you won't receive new options until the next Night Market. There's no guarantee that each Night Market will be a banger. However, you can expect at least two Knife/Melee skins during these events, and you'll also be safe from extreme duplicate scenarios since you can't get a skin for the same weapon type more than twice.

Can RGX appear in VALORANT's Night Market?

No, RGX skins can't appear in VALORANT's Night Market because they belong to the Exclusive tier. Night Market has a strict rule of not featuring Exclusive and Ultra Edition skins.

Overall, you can't get Exclusives and Ultra Editions from the VALORANT Night Market. In addition to this, it won't offer Gear and Battle Pass skins, or Melee skins with a higher price than 3,550 VP.

Why isn't your VALORANT Night Market showing up?

If your VALORANT Night Market isn't showing up, you should try restarting the game and checking for pending updates. The Night Market could be minutes away from officially starting.

The Night Market should appear after a restart, and if it doesn't, it's likely to appear after the official launch time, so you don't need to change any in-game settings, like your resolution.
