Valorant's rarest China melee to become available for all

Fariha Bhatti Published 12/07/2023

Since Valorant China’s announcement, players have their eyes fixated on the exclusive “Kitana” melee. After leakers’ claim it may not be as exclusive, Riot has now confirmed Fire Fan will be making it worldwide on July 14th.

Valorant players are always on the lookout for time-limited, rare cosmetics, even if they have to pay a huge amount for them. The exclusive items are worth every penny. Besides being a flex, they instantly boost the value of an account.

So, when Riot announced Kitana melee for China, players were finding foul ways to cop the rare knife. 

Kitana is the rarest Valorant knife right now

Kitana is currently only available for Chinese players, making it the rarest item as of writing. However, its scarcity isn’t the only reason behind the hype. Kitana is a sight for sore eyes. The melee is covered in feathers shaped like a fan. It’s reminiscent of the Celestial collection but better, thanks to its unique fan animation. 

Kitana comes in two variants: red and violet. While the red variant is ablaze with fire, the violet one has feathers dipped in an angelic glow. The overall aesthetic of the Kitana is unlike any other melee in Valorant, making it a highly sought-after commodity. 

Fortunately, it’s not going to stay limited to Chinese servers. Aalohabercisi claims Kitana will be available across all regions to commemorate the launch of Valorant in China. But, similar to the Arcane bundle, it’d be purchasable for a limited time, to never return to any store, including Night. Market.
