Riot Games has unveiled the VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 Battle Pass, introducing a new selection of weapon skins, player cards, sprays, buddies, titles, and other cosmetics. The Battle Pass launches alongside Act 5 on August 18, 2026, with Riot putting a noticeable emphasis on food, restaurants, cafes, and urban environments.

The new pass features three primary weapon collections: Gourmand, Verdant Cafe, and Last Stop. Each collection takes a different approach, ranging from clean restaurant-inspired designs to colorful cafe cosmetics and futuristic transit-themed weapons.

Gourmand features a sleek white, black, and green aesthetic across four weapons:

• - Gourmand Bandit
• - Gourmand Outlaw
• - Gourmand Operator
• - Gourmand Ares

The Gourmand Operator is one of the premium rewards specifically highlighted by Riot.

The most distinctive collection is arguably Verdant Cafe, which embraces its restaurant theme with green, brown, cream, and orange colors. The collection also includes a melee weapon styled after a kitchen knife.

Verdant Cafe includes:

• - Verdant Cafe Classic
• - Verdant Cafe Stinger
• - Verdant Cafe Bulldog
• - Verdant Cafe Vandal
• - Verdant Cafe Chef’s Knife

The Verdant Cafe Classic is available through the free reward track, while the Vandal and Chef’s Knife require the Premium Battle Pass.

The third collection, Last Stop, moves away from the culinary theme and takes inspiration from urban transportation. Its weapons combine blue panels, dark metallic surfaces, and bright futuristic accents.

The collection includes:

• - Last Stop Sheriff
• - Last Stop Marshal
• - Last Stop Phantom
• - Last Stop Guardian

The Last Stop Phantom is among the premium rewards available through the paid track.

Players who skip the Premium Battle Pass can still earn several cosmetics. Riot has highlighted the Verdant Cafe Classic, Hot Hot Hot Spray, Too Many Cooks Card, and Toasted Buddy as free rewards. The free progression track also includes 60 Radianite Points, additional sprays and player cards, and three titles: Left No Crumbs, Fried, and Serving Tea.

The Premium Battle Pass adds even more themed cosmetics, including the Nuggetman Buddy, Chef's Choice Card, Personal Setup // Clove Card, Pure Bread Spray, and Lil Diva Walkin Spray.

Together, the cards, sprays, buddies, and titles reinforce the food-focused identity of the new Battle Pass while giving the Act a consistent visual theme.

The Season 2026 Act 5 Premium Battle Pass costs 1,000 VP. Players can still access the free progression track and unlock its designated rewards without purchasing the premium version.

Those who purchase the Premium Battle Pass gain access to the complete reward progression, including the additional weapon skins and premium cosmetics earned through XP.

VALORANT Season 2026 Act 5 launches on August 18, 2026, bringing the new Battle Pass and its collection of restaurant-inspired, cafe-themed, and futuristic urban cosmetics to players.
