Neo Frontier 2.0 vs 1.0: Bundle Valorant Mana Berbaloi di Malaysia?
Published: 2026-07-31
Patch 13.02 dropped VALORANT's Neo Frontier 2.0 bundle on Malaysia servers around 11:00 AM MYT on 30 Julai 2026. The price sticker for Malaysian players is 6,700 VP. That is the same 3-item main bundle shape Riot has run since 2023, except this run hides the game's first-ever Lasso melee. The wider Run It Back: Neo Frontier mega bundle wraps the 2.0 items plus three 1.0 classics (Sheriff, Phantom, Marshal) into a single 9,310 VP purchase. That is a 37% cut versus 14,825 VP a la carte. Both leave the featured shop on 19 Ogos 2026 ~07:00 AM MYT (Aug 18, 4:00 PM PDT), giving Malaysian squads roughly 18 days to decide. REDX Game already lists Valorant Points top-up for MYR delivery in 1-3 minutes. Pack maths is the bottleneck, not payment.
Patch 13.02 and what actually shipped this week
Riot pushed Patch 13.02 to the Asia-Pacific server between 11:00 AM and 12:00 noon MYT on 30 Julai 2026. Alongside a Phoenix ultimate rework and new Retakes maps, the Neo Frontier 2.0 collection landed in the featured shop: three variants for Vandal and Shorty, plus a genuinely new Lasso weapon type that swings the melee slot away from knives and axes for the first time.
Every skin ships in two forms: a dusty Old West rendition at base tier, then a chrome sci-fi variant that appears through Radianite. Each weapon carries 5 colour variants. The Lasso adds an inspect loop that plays saloon music in the West form and a synth-western track in the sci-fi form. Riot's design lead on skins told VALORANT's press feed the Lasso "gives the agent something to manipulate continuously, so the animation feels like a practised routine rather than a brief inspection" (playvalorant.com game updates, 28 Julai 2026). KL, Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam squads who queue-hop between Ranked and Deathmatch will spot the animations on drop-ins first. The spin loop is passive. Opponents watching your inspect see the show before the first bullet lands.
Neo Frontier 2.0 vs Run It Back Mega Bundle: what you actually pay
The main choice is not "buy or skip". It is which of the two active SKUs earns your VP. The table below stacks bundle VP against the same items purchased separately, so the discount is visible in one glance.

Neo Frontier Odin and the original Axe Melee from 1.0 are not in either bundle. Both stay locked behind the daily rotating shop, so budget an extra 4,350 VP window and check each morning. After the featured rotation clears on 19 Ogos, both weapons wait for the next Night Market cycle.
Berapa RM sebenar untuk 6,700 VP di Malaysia?
Riot's Malaysia storefront tops out at RM 199.90 for 6,750 VP (5,769 base + 981 bonus) per the official regional pricing sheet (Valorant on Wikipedia, 2026 monetisation section). That single tier covers the 6,700 VP bundle with 50 VP loose change. Sticker maths on the main Neo Frontier 2.0 bundle rounds to RM 199.90 via Riot direct. One tier, one transaction.
The Mega Bundle's 9,310 VP does not land on a clean Riot tier, so most Kuala Lumpur cafes and Johor Bahru gamers stack the RM 199.90 tier with a RM 115 tier (3,650 VP) to hit 10,400 VP total at RM 314.90, leaving 1,090 VP spare for a Battle Pass boost. A leaner combo of RM 199.90 plus a RM 65 tier (2,050 VP) reaches only 8,800 VP, 510 VP short of the Mega Bundle price. REDX Game direct top-up pushes the same tier to your Riot account in ringgit, and delivery is advertised at 1-3 minutes rather than card-verification limbo.
App Store iOS purchases sit higher because of the 30% Apple in-app fee. The Malaysian iOS 6,750 VP tier prices at roughly RM 259 versus Riot direct's RM 199.90, an RM 59 gap for the same VP total. Buying at REDX Game therefore keeps around RM 60 per Neo Frontier 2.0 purchase and around RM 90 per Mega Bundle purchase (RM 314.90 vs the App Store's ~RM 405 equivalent). Senang gila. That is one RapidKL monthly pass in ringgit saved.
Beginner primer: previewing skins and Radianite upgrades before you commit
Every Neo Frontier weapon opens at a base tier with good animations and no variants. Revealing the sci-fi transformation and the Old West to futuristic music switch on the Lasso costs Radianite Points: 10 RP per level, 40 RP for the full 4-level ladder per weapon. The Lasso melee absorbs the same 40 RP. No shortcut, no VP bypass.
- Preview before purchase: Collection → Store → hover the bundle → click "Inspect" to see the West and sci-fi forms cycle.
- Colour variants (green, gold, silver, copper) arrive after level 4. No extra VP, just RP.
- Radianite drops per act: ~40 RP from a free Battle Pass, ~120 RP more from the paid pass (1000 VP).
- Mega Bundle owners upgrading all 6 weapons fully need ~240 RP, roughly two acts of paid pass grinding.
Paper Rex fans get an extra pull this week. Malaysian IGL Khalish "d4v41" Rusyaidee already has PRX mathematically locked into VALORANT Champions 2026 (Shanghai, 24 Sept to 18 Okt), the first team globally to secure a slot (Paper Rex on Liquipedia). Catch him running the Vandal on a VCT Pacific Stage 2 broadcast with a Neo Frontier skin equipped for a 60fps preview. Worth 10 minutes before you spend.
Soalan lazim tentang Neo Frontier 2.0 di Malaysia
Bila bundle Neo Frontier 2.0 tamat di Malaysia?
Featured shop rotation clears at 4:00 PM PDT on 18 Ogos 2026, which is 07:00 AM MYT on 19 Ogos 2026. After that, individual items enter the daily rotating shop and eventually the Night Market. Riot has publicly confirmed the 2.0 items "won't appear in future iterations of the Night Market", so post-19 Ogos access is daily shop only.
Apa beza Neo Frontier 2.0 dengan Neo Frontier 1.0?
1.0 (2023) shipped Sheriff, Phantom, Marshal, Odin and Axe Melee, while 2.0 (2026) ships Vandal, Shorty and a Lasso melee, hitting entirely different weapon slots so returning players do not double-dip on the same guns from the previous collection. The Run It Back Mega Bundle merges both runs so returning players can complete their Neo Frontier collection without waiting for a Night Market drop.
Boleh top-up 6,700 VP guna Touch 'n Go eWallet atau Boost?
Ya. REDX Game's Valorant Malaysia checkout supports FPX online banking, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost and standard debit or credit cards, so any mainstream Malaysian wallet clears the 6,700 VP tier without a bank transfer detour. Riot's storefront also accepts TNG and Boost via its Malaysia gateway. Tak perlu tunggu lama, delivery advertises at 1-3 minutes to your Riot account after payment confirms.
Adakah bundle ini berbaloi untuk Ranked semata-mata?
Cosmetics do not change gunplay. Vandal and Shorty visuals are strong, but if you already own the Prime Vandal or a Sheriff skin you use daily, the Mega Bundle wastes VP. A single 6,700 VP Neo Frontier 2.0 bundle is the safer buy for Ranked-only players.
Berapa RP saya perlu untuk upgrade semua Neo Frontier 2.0?
120 RP fully upgrades the 3-weapon 2.0 bundle (40 RP per weapon across 4 levels), while Mega Bundle owners need 240 RP total across all 6 weapons to reach every colour variant on every gun in the collection.

Local tips: Malaysian squad culture and safe top-up habits
Ipoh, Penang and Kuching squads catching VCT Pacific broadcasts at mamak spots on Ahad malam often pool top-ups. One player buys the Mega Bundle at RM 314.90 while everyone else chips in via DuitNow QR after the payment clears, a boleh tahan approach that splits the sting three ways and gets all 2.0 items equipped on the same night. Just make sure the account credited belongs to the person paying, since VP is non-transferable and Riot's "gifting" flow only opens after a 30-day friend cooldown.
Safety-wise, stick to advertised MYR channels: Riot direct, REDX Game direct top-up, or Malaysia telco carrier billing. Ignore forum posts offering "cheap 6,700 VP" for RM 100 or under. VP scam DMs jumped ~40% during the last Neo Frontier release week per Bukit Aman e-crime advisories. Memang best when the skins arrive in 90 seconds through a licensed reseller. Senang gila to lose the account when they never arrive at all.
