The highly anticipated VALORANT Night Market is officially returning for its final installment of the year, giving players one last chance to grab discounted skins before the end of 2025. This limited-time rotating store is a major event in the VALORANT community, offering personalized deals on weapon cosmetics, and the confirmed dates are now locked in. To maximize your savings, you need to know the exact start and end times, as well as which coveted skin lines are actually eligible for the massive price cuts.

As of today, December 17, 2025, the most current and confirmed information points to the next Night Market starting in just a few weeks. This guide breaks down the precise schedule, the mechanics of the market, and the crucial details about skin eligibility to ensure you don't miss out on the best deals.

VALORANT Night Market 2025: Confirmed Dates and Duration

The next VALORANT Night Market is scheduled to launch in December 2025. This event marks the final market of the year and the last opportunity for players to snag discounted skins from the current Act.

The Next Night Market Start and End Dates

  • Start Date: Thursday, December 11, 2025
  • End Date: Tuesday, January 6, 2026
  • Duration: The event will run for approximately 26 days, spanning the holiday season and into the new year.

This schedule follows Riot Games' established pattern of hosting the Night Market once per Act, typically appearing in the final weeks of the Act before a major patch or episode change. Historically, the Night Market appears roughly every 2-3 months.

Exact Start Times for Major Regions

The Night Market drops simultaneously across all regions, meaning the date can shift depending on your time zone. Here are the confirmed or expected start times for December 11, 2025, and December 12, 2025, based on Riot's typical release schedule:

  • Los Angeles (PT): 5:00 PM on Thursday, December 11, 2025
  • New York (ET): 8:00 PM on Thursday, December 11, 2025
  • London (GMT/UTC): 1:00 AM on Friday, December 12, 2025
  • Berlin (CEST): 2:00 AM on Friday, December 12, 2025
  • Seoul/Tokyo (KST/JST): 10:00 AM on Friday, December 12, 2025

How the Night Market Works: Discounts and Eligibility Explained

The Night Market is not just a standard store sale; it is a personalized shop that offers six random weapon skins at a reduced price. It is designed to entice players with deals tailored specifically to their account, although the random nature of the selection is what makes it so exciting (and sometimes frustrating) for the community.

Accessing Your Personalized Deals

To access the Night Market, simply launch VALORANT during the active dates. On the main home screen, you will see a small, glowing card icon in the top-right corner of the screen, right next to the in-game settings button. Clicking this icon will take you to your personalized market.

  • You will be presented with six face-down cards.
  • Clicking each card will "flip" it to reveal a random weapon skin and its associated discount.
  • Once revealed, the skins and their discounts are locked for the duration of the event.

Night Market Discount Range

The discount you receive on any given skin is entirely random but falls within a specific range. Getting a high discount is often referred to as "hitting the jackpot."

  • Discount Range: 10% to 49% off the original VP price.
  • The highest discount, 49%, is rare, and most players see offers between 10% and 30%.

The Crucial List of Eligible and Ineligible Skin Tiers

One of the most common questions surrounding the Night Market is which skins can actually appear. Not all skin lines are available, as Riot restricts the market to certain tiers. Understanding these tiers is essential for managing your expectations and saving your VALORANT Points (VP).

Eligible Skin Tiers (The Good News)

Only skins from the three standard Edition tiers are eligible to appear in the Night Market. This means that any skin from these lines, regardless of the weapon (Vandal, Phantom, Operator, etc.), has a chance to be discounted:

  • Select Edition (875 VP): Includes bundles like Rush, Sensation, and Smite.
  • Deluxe Edition (1275 VP): Includes bundles like Prime//2.0, Luxe, and Winterwunderland.
  • Premium Edition (1775 VP): This is the highest tier available. Includes popular bundles such as Reaver, Ion, Glitchpop (excluding the melee), and Elderflame.

The maximum original price for any single weapon skin in the Night Market is 1,775 VP (Premium Tier).

Ineligible Skin Tiers (The Bad News)

To maintain their exclusivity and prestige, the highest-tier skins are never included in the Night Market. If you are holding out for a discount on these, you will be disappointed:

  • Exclusive Edition (2175 VP): Bundles like Glitchpop (Melee), Zedd x VALORANT, and Champions collections are excluded.
  • Ultra Edition (2475 VP): Bundles like Elderflame (Melee) and all other Ultra-tier collections are ineligible.
  • Battle Pass Skins: Skins earned from the current or previous Battle Passes will not appear.
  • New Skins: Any skin bundle released in the current Act is typically excluded from the Night Market until a future event.

In short, the Night Market is your best bet for grabbing a discounted Reaver Vandal or an Ion Phantom, but you'll have to pay full price for any Ultra or Exclusive tier skins.
