Grammy winners don’t collaborate on video games all that often, but that’s precisely what EDM artist Anton “Zedd” Zaslavski did with Valorant’s new Spectrum weapon skin bundle.
These sleek skins for the Bulldog, Guardian, Classic, Phantom and knife weapons are supposed to evoke the neon hues of a night club. If you happen to win a match with one of these skins equipped, the battlefield will transform into a dazzling EDM rave. It’s wild stuff, and developer Riot Games wanted Zaslavski’s expertise to help pull the concept off.
“This is honestly a dream come true,” Zaslavski said via Billboard. “I’ve never done anything like this, and I get incredibly excited any time I get to do something I haven’t done before. I’m such a big fan of the game. When I’m not on tour, I literally play every day.”

The Valorant community is already elated over Spectrum, letting Zaslavski know right away how impressive the new skins are.
Seeing all the love on the @PlayVALORANT collab makes my heart so damn full 😭.
We’ve put so much work and details in to this skin line… I can’t wait for everyone to discover everything.
Huge shout out to the entire VALORANT team for pushing us way beyond our initial goals ♥️
