Here's when the next Valorant Night. Market returns

Fariha Bhatti Published 01/12/2022

It’s time for broke Valorant players to stack up their inventories—the Night. Market is returning! 

Riot Games regularly rolls out extravagant, expensive bundles for skin collectors. Some are affordable, but others are just outrageous pricey. However, the developer is not counting out the regular players who like to enjoy a nice gun skin. Night. Market is Riot’s way of letting all players in on the fun.

The Valorant thrift store brings lavish skins at a cut price. It’s finally returning with new weapons for episode 5, act 3.

When is the next Valorant Night. Market? 

Valorant Night. Market for episode 5, act 3 begins on December 7 and will run until January 4. Players will have to wait for patch 5.12 to be able to buy skins at low prices. 

On December 7, a new tab will appear on the menu bar, featuring six hidden slots. Players can turn these slots once to see what awaits them. While there’s tons of anticipation around the thrift store, it’s worth noting a few things to avoid disappointments. 

• Night. Market doesn’t include Exclusive skins
• Ultra skins are also excluded from Night. Market
• Night. Market doesn’t have bundles released in the past two acts
• Night Market cannot offer more than two skins from the premium class
• Slots or cards can’t be turned more than once.

Besides these exceptions, all rotational bundles are included in the store for the duration of 27 days. 

Why is my Night. Market so bad? 

Many players complain about having a poor collection of skins in their Night. Market. It could be bad luck, but Riot usually isn’t responsible for it. If you keep getting bad options, it’s likely because you have purchased all good skins in Valorant. The store doesn’t include skins that are already in your inventory.
