VALORANT, developed by Riot Games, is close to implementing a long-awaited feature: the gifting system. Recent leaks indicate that players will be able to send items, such as weapon skins and special bundles, to friends.

The ability to send gifts between users promises to strengthen the community, facilitating interaction and offering a new way to celebrate achievements and special moments within the game. However, as is common with developments of this type, Riot Games warns that the release date may be adjusted as updates progress.
How the gifting system will work in VALORANT
According to available information, the feature will allow players to send a variety of digital items, including weapon skins, player cards, and charms. This gifting system will be available to console and PC users, expanding the new feature's reach. While Riot Games hasn't yet released all the details, leaks suggest it will even be possible to send Battle Passes to other players.
It's important to note that the system will have limitations: transfers of VALORANT Points (VP), the game's virtual currency, and Radianite points will not be available. This measure aims to prevent fraud and maintain the security of in-game transactions. For players, this means that gifts will be limited to specific customization items.
Gift System Release Date
Although Riot Games hasn't yet made the date official, there's speculation that the gifting system will be available at the start of Episode 10. According to leaks, the episode is expected to launch in a few weeks, but the developer emphasizes that the feature's implementation depends on technical adjustments and final testing.
With expectations running high, players are advised to follow VALORANT's official social media and channels for real-time updates on the arrival of this new feature.
Players looking to gift VALORANT skins and other items to friends already have options, while the gifting system isn't live. One simple option is to transfer the corresponding amount through services like PayPal, allowing the recipient to purchase the desired skin directly.
Another alternative is to purchase prepaid VALORANT Points cards from online retailers like Amazon. Players can then redeem the codes from these cards to convert them into in-game credits. This will allow for a similar gifting experience until the new feature arrives.
Impact of the new feature on the VALORANT community
The introduction of the gifting system in VALORANT promises to encourage a culture of sharing and interaction among players. The ability to send items and reward friends strengthens the sense of community, bringing participants closer together and cementing in-game bonds.
Furthermore, the feature arrives at a time when Riot Games is looking to expand VALORANT's reach and engage its user base. The gifting system could be a valuable tool for enhancing the player experience, while the company also explores ways to strengthen the game's social environment.
