Which real-money currency can buy cosmetic items or new agents in Valorant?

Valorant Points are the real-money currency used to buy cosmetic content and, where applicable, unlock Agents in Valorant. Players purchase VP with real currency through the game client, then spend the points in the Store or Agent Store.

VP primarily supports optional personalization. Players use it for weapon and melee skins, bundles, accessories, and other premium content. Riot has stated that these cosmetics are designed not to provide a gameplay advantage, even when they change models, animations, visual effects, or sounds.

The currency is easy to confuse with Radianite Points. Radianite Points are mainly used to evolve eligible weapon skins after purchase; they are not the premium currency used to buy the initial skin. Kingdom Credits are a separate free currency earned through play and used for selected Agents, Agent Gear, and accessories.

Agent availability can depend on the recruitment system and the Agent’s release window, but VP remains the direct premium purchase option when an Agent can be bought.
