How to Get Free Radianite Points in Valorant

Valorant runs on two distinct currencies, and it's worth not mixing them up. Valorant Points (VP) are the paid currency: they're used to buy skins, the Battle Pass, and the Night Market, and Riot Games doesn't offer any real, sustained way to get them for free, beyond the occasional official giveaway or Twitch drops during specific events. If any website promises free VP in exchange for your username and password, or via a 'generator', it's a scam that can end with your account stolen or banned. The currency you can actually farm by playing is Radianite (Radianite Points), a free resource tied to player progression that's used to visually upgrade certain skins (evolution levels, finish variants, sound and color effects). This guide focuses on Radianite: where it really comes from, how much you can expect from each method, and what a reasonable approximate monthly figure looks like, without inflating expectations or promising anything Riot doesn't actually offer.

What's the fastest way to get Radianite Points in Valorant?

We've gathered and verified every real method for getting free Radianite Points, ranked from most to least profitable based on the time they take and what you can actually earn from each. No tricks, no generators — just the game's own mechanics.

~30-60 Radianite per act (free track) Every act/episode

Free Battle Pass

Every Valorant episode brings a Battle Pass with a free track and a premium one. The free track hands out Radianite in several tiers across its rewards (usually in blocks of 10 points spread over different levels), and adding the epilogue tier you can reach around 60 free points per act. The exact figure varies from one episode to another, so treat it as approximate. It's by far the most reliable and recurring source of free Radianite: you just need to play matches to generate XP and level up the pass.

Welcome Contract for new accounts

If your account is new, Riot activates a specific Welcome Contract for new players. Completing it up to level 7 (accumulating 72,000 XP through normal matches) grants 40 Radianite Points at once, plus other cosmetic rewards. It's a very useful one-off boost when starting out, but it doesn't repeat: once completed, this source disappears for good on that account.

Variable (occasional bundles with Radianite) Variable

Prime Gaming (Amazon Prime)

Riot has a deal with Amazon Prime Gaming under which, periodically but not on a fixed schedule, free packs are offered that sometimes include Radianite Points alongside gun buddies or minor cosmetics. You just need to link your Riot account with Amazon Prime (which has a 30-day free trial if you don't already have it) and claim the active pack from the Prime Gaming website. Not every pack includes Radianite and it isn't a guaranteed recurring method, so check it monthly without relying on it.

Small, occasional amounts Variable

Agent contracts

Aside from the Welcome Contract, every agent has its own progression contract (character-specific XP) that mainly unlocks titles, cards, and weapon skins exclusive to that agent. Radianite has shown up as a reward in some tiers of certain historical contracts, but it isn't the norm or something you can count on across every agent or episode. Treat it as an occasional extra, not a plannable source.

Variable Variable

Account level rewards and special events

Leveling up your overall account, and some temporary events Riot runs (anniversaries, collaborations, esports celebrations), can include small amounts of Radianite among their rewards. There's no fixed figure or predictable cadence: it shows up whenever Riot decides to include it in a specific event. It's worth watching Valorant's official announcements (website and social media) during events, but don't plan your Radianite farming around this source.

How much free Radianite Points can you get per month?

Source	Estimated amount	Frequency
Free Battle Pass	~15-30 (spreading the act's total across ~2 months of duration)	Ongoing through the act
Prime Gaming	Variable, not guaranteed every month	Variable
Estimated total	~15-30 Radianite Points per month on average	—

This figure comes from spreading the free Battle Pass's Radianite (up to ~60 per act) across an episode's typical duration (about 2 months). It doesn't include the Welcome Contract (40 points, one-time only) or Prime Gaming and events, since they're neither recurring nor guaranteed: they can add a lot some months and nothing in others.

Frequently asked questions

Can you get Valorant Points (VP) for free legitimately?

Not on a sustained basis. VP is Valorant's paid currency and Riot has no official system for earning it by playing. The only exceptions are occasional giveaways and promotions announced through Riot's official channels or esports events, which are neither frequent nor guaranteed. Any website or video offering a 'VP generator' in exchange for your credentials is a scam that can steal your account.

What is Radianite actually for if I can't buy skins with it?

Radianite doesn't buy new skins: it's used to visually upgrade skins you already own at certain evolution levels (color changes, finish, or sound/impact effects). It doesn't replace VP, which is what you need to acquire the skin itself from the store or the Battle Pass.

Is it worth buying the premium battle pass just for the extra Radianite?

If your only goal is stockpiling Radianite, it usually isn't worth it: the premium track costs real VP and its main value is in the exclusive skins and cosmetics, not the extra Radianite. It makes sense to buy it if you want the pass's skins anyway; if you're only after free Radianite, the free track and the Welcome Contract are enough without spending anything.
