REDX vs App Store: Aeris Bundle Price in Malaysia
Published: 2026-08-19
Aeris Bundle Ringgit Math for Malaysian Players
The full Aeris Collection costs 9,500 VP, and the cleanest Malaysian stack is two 3,650 VP packs plus two 1,050 VP packs at REDX Game. That is RM 168.90 + RM 168.90 + RM 51 + RM 51, or RM 439.80 for 9,400 VP (100 VP short of the bundle, which you top with a small 475 VP pack or existing account balance). The same 9,400 VP through the iOS App Store costs RM 218.90 + RM 218.90 + RM 60.90 + RM 60.90 = RM 559.60. Difference: RM 119.80 in your pocket, on one bundle.
On a per-weapon basis, 1,050 VP is RM 51 at REDX Game and RM 60.90 on the App Store. That RM 9.90 gap sounds small until you stack it four times for this bundle, then again for the Act 5 Battle Pass, then again for the next Act. Over a year of casual pack buys, most Kuala Lumpur ranked regulars I know save RM 100 to RM 200 by keeping their VP flow off the App Store.
Aeris Collection Launches Alongside Act 5
Riot's Aeris skinline went live in the featured store during the Act 5 launch window on 18 Ogos 2026. NA maintenance wrapped roughly 7:30 PM MYT (all times Malaysia Standard Time, GMT+8), and the storefront rotated Aeris in that evening for Malaysian accounts.
Contents run four weapons and one melee: a Vandal, Bandit, Guardian and Marshal (2,375 VP each standalone), plus the Suit of Aeris melee at 5,350 VP. The bundle also throws in a Flex hand-held card deck (1,375 VP), a Player Card (575 VP), and a Gun Buddy (475 VP). Four color variants ship with every skin: white, red, purple, blue.
Riot's own description of the skinline reads: "Aeris introduces a new generation of elite mages who have rejected traditional spellcasting and reinvented magic through cardistry. Each card is engraved with powerful spells, serving as both a conduit for magic and an expression of the wielder's identity and skill." (via the official Riot statement quoted by Insider Gaming). The Suit of Aeris melee is the standout: it transforms across a dagger, a sword, and a greatsword between primary and alternate attacks. Its Flex card deck also carries a 10% chance easter egg where the deck swaps for cards from Riot's Riftbound trading card game.
Why Ultra Edition Pricing Makes Sense (and When It Doesn't)
Aeris sits at Riot's Ultra Edition tier at 9,500 VP, the top shelf in Valorant's cosmetic pricing. That tier has been around for years, but the value math still trips people up.
Break the bundle down. The melee alone is 5,350 VP, or roughly RM 260 pro-rated through REDX Game 1,050 VP packs. That's 56% of the whole bundle price sitting in one item. Four weapons at 2,375 VP each is 9,500 VP by themselves. Buying just the four guns standalone costs the same ringgit as the whole collection, which means the melee, the Flex, the Player Card and the Buddy are effectively free if you were going to buy all four rifles anyway.
The math flips if you only rifle. Vandal-only players who never touch the Bandit or Guardian pay for three skins they will not equip. In that case, buying the Vandal standalone at 2,375 VP (about RM 115 at REDX Game) is honest value; buying the whole Ultra bundle is not. Same rule for Marshal-only Operators or Guardian mains: the bundle only earns its price if two or more of the included weapons already sit in your rotation.
Aeris Bundle FAQ
When does the Aeris Bundle release in Malaysia?
18 Ogos 2026 evening MYT, alongside the Act 5 patch. Riot NA maintenance wrapped around 7:30 PM MYT, and the featured store rotated Aeris in shortly after. The bundle typically stays in the featured store for two Acts before rotating out to standalone buys only.
How much is the full Aeris Collection in ringgit?
About RM 439.80 through a two-3,650 + two-1,050 VP stack at REDX Game, versus RM 559.60 on the iOS App Store for the same 9,400 VP. Top up to the exact 9,500 VP with a 475 VP pack or a leftover Battle Pass drop.
Can I buy just the Suit of Aeris melee?
Yes, once the bundle rotates out of featured. Standalone melee is 5,350 VP. A REDX Game stack of 3,650 + 1,050 + 1,050 VP (5,750 total, small leftover) runs about RM 270.90, versus roughly RM 340.70 on the App Store for the same VP total.
Does the 10% Riftbound easter egg apply to Malaysian accounts?
Yes. The Flex's Riftbound card easter egg is coded into the skinline itself, not gated by region, so accounts based in Selangor or Penang pull the same 10% activation rate as North American ones.
Do Aeris skins have variant tiers, radianite, or level upgrades?
Four color variants ship at purchase (white, red, purple, blue). No radianite upgrades apply to Aeris. It's an Ultra Edition line, not an Exclusive Edition line, so no Vandal Ranger-style level progression either.
Third-Party Sellers and the Trap of Murah Aeris VP
Discord DMs offering 9,500 VP for RM 250 are almost always mule accounts topped up through stolen cards, or region-priced VP from Turkey and Argentina that Riot chargeback-bans within 30 days. Riot's API only pushes VP delivery through licensed regional partners; for the MY region, REDX Game is one of them. If a "murah giler" seller cannot show you the Riot receipt inside your own client's transaction history, walk away. The skin you buy today can vanish next month when the source account gets flagged.
Region-hop discounts fell apart in Season 2026 as well. Some players used to VPN into Turkish lira pricing to save ringgit; Riot locked VP to purchase region for 90 days across the season update. A Turkish-priced Aeris melee cannot cross to your MY account without the whole account getting frozen for review.
Best Ways to Top Up 9,500 VP in KL, PJ, and Beyond
Malaysian payment options at REDX Game: DuitNow QR, Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, and FPX through Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks, Public Bank and RHB. All flows sit in ringgit; no FX conversion, no App Store 15% platform cut. Delivery is advertised at 1 to 3 minutes. For a bundle drop day that matters more than usual, because the featured store often sees stock congestion in the first hour and you want your Aeris Vandal equipped before the first ranked queue.
Paper Rex's Malaysian rifler d4v41 has said before that he keeps a local reseller flow for personal-account top-ups rather than the App Store, to keep the ringgit math clean during Act launches. Team Secret Malaysia scrim accounts run a similar setup. For Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, Johor Bahru, Ipoh, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu players, an FPX transfer from Maybank2u before the evening rotation window means Aeris ships to your client while the queue loads. Boleh tahan.
