Published: 2026-09-27

Valorant Night Market runs 22 September to 6 October 2026, opening 8 AM MYT on 23 September for Malaysian players. Six random skins land in your store at 10% to 49% off, no rerolls, no swaps. If you plan to spend, the 1,000 VP tier at RM 33.90 covers most Select and Deluxe hits, and a top-up via DuitNow QR lands in your account in 1 to 3 minutes before the market closes.

Night Market Opens 22 September 2026: Malaysia Time in One Row

Riot switched the Night Market on globally at 5:00 PM Pacific on 22 September 2026, which is midnight UTC on 23 September. All times below are Malaysia Time (MYT, GMT+8).

Opens: 23 September 2026, 8:00 AM MYT
Closes: 6 October 2026, roughly 3:00 PM MYT (the tail is patch-day dependent, so buy earlier if you care)
Patch: V26 Act 5 (Riot's internal reference is patch 13.06)
Skin count per player: 6, revealed one by one
Discount range: 10% to 49%, personalised

Malaysian players in KL, Petaling Jaya and Johor Bahru get the same market as everyone else on the Pacific server, and the offers are locked at reveal so senang gila, no need to rush at 8 AM if you are still at work. Riot has published the mechanic on its official Night.Market support page and the September 2026 dates are logged on the VALORANT wiki.

You Get Six Cards. That Is It. No Rerolls.

The Night Market is not a shop you browse: it is six sealed cards you flip once, in the order Riot chose, with no preview, no reroll button, and no way to send an offer to a friend who might use it more. If a card lands on a Sovereign Ghost you already own, that slot is wasted, because duplicates cannot appear again in the same 14-day window and Riot has never once shipped a compensation path for it.

Riot's announcement (relayed by Strafe on 22 September 2026) put the boundaries plainly: "The V26 Act 5 Night Market runs until October 6, with discounts ranging from 10% to 49% across eligible Select, Deluxe, and Premium skins." (Strafe, 22 Sept 2026).

Two rules Malaysian players get wrong every Act:

Cards do NOT refresh at midnight. The set you see on 23 September is the set you keep until 6 October.
Unopened cards do not roll over. If you leave a card face-down on 6 October, that discount is gone, not banked.

The pool this Act draws from three tiers: 26 Select-tier skins, 31 Deluxe-tier, and 40 Premium-tier. Exclusive and Ultra tiers (Prime//2.0 Karambit, Reaver 2.0 Vandal, anything from the Champions collections) do not appear. Do not chase them here.

Five Collections Worth Stopping On If You Flip Them

Which cards should you actually buy? These five repeatedly land in the 40% to 49% band across the last three Night Markets, ranked by usual discount depth:

Reaver (Deluxe): black-and-gold Vandal, Guardian and Sheriff, deep discounts almost every rotation. A 49%-off Reaver Vandal is roughly RM 26 in VP, and it is the single best-selling Vandal skin in the game.
Prime (Premium): the chrome set with the finisher animation. Full-price Prime Vandal is 1,775 VP; a 45% Night Market cut drops it near 976 VP, which fits inside a 1,000 VP top-up.
Sovereign (Deluxe): clean, no VFX baggage. A Night Market card here is your low-risk "just take it" flip.
Undercity (Deluxe): good silencer animation on the Ghost, a frequent 30% to 40% discount pick.
VALORANT GO! Vol. 1 / Vol. 2 (Select): cartoon skins, cheap base price. One Malaysian player I know flipped a 49% GO! Sheriff for RM 8 in VP last Act.

What to skip even at a big number: bundle skins from the last 90 days rarely enter the pool, tactical Vandal themes like Xerofang are worth passing if you already own a Vandal you like, and any Premium skin at 10% to 20% is "discount" that barely covers the SST equivalent you already paid to Riot.

How Much VP You Actually Need in MYR

Riot's official Malaysia ladder, taken from the Valorant client on 22 September 2026, in ringgit:

475 VP: RM 16.90 (RM 0.036 per VP, the worst tier)
1,000 VP: RM 33.90 (RM 0.034 per VP, the "starter" flat rate)
2,050 VP: RM 67.90 (RM 0.033 per VP)
3,650 VP: RM 118.90 (RM 0.033 per VP)
5,350 VP: RM 169.90 (RM 0.032 per VP)
11,000 VP: RM 339.90 (RM 0.031 per VP, the ceiling)

The math a Malaysian player should actually run for a Night Market:

A discounted Deluxe at 40% off costs about 780 VP; a discounted Premium at 40% off runs about 1,065 VP; two Premiums together sit near 2,130 VP. So the sensible top-up is 2,050 VP at RM 67.90 if you expect one Premium and one Deluxe, or 3,650 VP at RM 118.90 for three-card ambition. Buying two 1,000 VP packs to hit 2,000 VP is a trap, because RM 67.80 for 2,000 VP versus RM 67.90 for 2,050 VP means 50 free VP is worth 10 sen.

REDX Game lists the same six MYR tiers with the same VP; the difference is that REDX Game clears the order in 1 to 3 minutes via DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost or FPX, and no card FX markup lands on top. Buying the equivalent 1,000 VP on Riot's US store at USD 9.99 converts to about RM 44 at 4.42 MYR/USD before any bank foreign-transaction fee, so the MYR ladder saves about RM 10 on a starter pack and keeps DuitNow's zero-fee rails — the "buy in USD to save" myth some Team Secret fans repeat after every VCT Pacific loss is exactly that, a myth.

Top Up VP Before You Flip Your Cards

You cannot add funds mid-flip: card discounts are static, but the currency has to be sitting in your Riot account before you reveal, or you will click on a discounted Reaver Vandal, panic-close the store when the "insufficient VP" prompt fires, and reload the client while the "buy" button greys out for a full minute.

Log the exact VP total you need. Use the ringgit ladder above; round up to the next tier, never down.
Go to REDX Game's Valorant top-up page, pick the tier, and enter your Riot ID and tagline (the format is YourName#TAG, case-sensitive).
Pay in ringgit via DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost, or FPX. Boleh tahan speed: REDX Game advertises 1 to 3 minutes to your account.
Open the Valorant client. Confirm the VP appears in the top right of the store.
Flip your Night Market cards one at a time. Take a screenshot of each before you buy, in case your card drops mid-transaction.

One quiet risk: never top up Valorant through anyone selling "cheap VP" in a Discord DM or a Carousell listing under retail, because Riot's terms strip stolen-card VP the moment the chargeback lands and your account is what eats it. REDX Game is a licenced Malaysian reseller, and the boring answer here is the correct one.

Malaysian Night Market Questions

What time does the Night Market open in Malaysia?

The market opens at 8:00 AM MYT on 23 September 2026, because Riot flipped the switch at 5:00 PM Pacific on 22 September and Malaysia sits 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles, meaning the offers appear on the Pacific server while most Malaysian players are still asleep.

When does the Night Market close for Malaysian players?

Roughly 3:00 PM MYT on 6 October 2026. Riot typically closes it at patch-day maintenance, which is late morning Pacific, and that lands in the Malaysian afternoon. Anything unclaimed at that moment is gone.

Can I get skins from the Champions or Exclusive collections in the Night Market?

You cannot: Champions 2026 Collection, Prime//2.0, Reaver 2.0 and every Ultra-tier bundle are excluded from the Night Market pool by design, so only Select, Deluxe and Premium tiers can appear on your six cards.

Can I reroll my six skins if the cards look bad?

You cannot reroll: once a card is revealed it is locked for the full 14-day window, and if your six all land on skins you already own the Night Market gives you nothing because Riot has never implemented a reroll, swap or refund mechanic.

Is buying VP in MYR through a reseller safe?

Yes, when the reseller is a licenced Malaysian company that uses local rails. REDX Game runs on DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost and FPX with MYR-only pricing, no FX markup, no card surcharge. Never buy VP from a stranger on Carousell or a Discord DM; that path ends in a suspended account.

What is the smallest VP top-up that covers one Night Market skin?

1,000 VP at RM 33.90 covers most Select and Deluxe discounts. For a Premium card at 40% off, jump to 2,050 VP at RM 67.90. Riot's smallest official tier (475 VP for RM 16.90) is not enough for a discounted Deluxe.
