As with all firearms in this popular tactical shooter, Riot has released a number of unique Ghost skins through various skin collections and the Battle Pass.

Purchasing such skins allows you to customize the weapon while giving it a distinctive look and feel. Given the variety of options available, it can be difficult to choose one. Although personal taste usually dictates overall preference, the options listed below are some of the best you can get.

Updated on November 29, 2024 by Maria Antiporda: This list has been updated to include recently released skins and the ranking has been changed accordingly. Each entry has also been updated to include more detailed descriptions of each skin.

10 Magepunk spirit

The Magepunk Ghost skin is perfect for steampunk fans out there. The design takes you on a journey into a world where technology and magic come together to create an elegant, deadly weapon. Unlocking the VFX with Radianite gives the weapon a pleasant sound that makes it seem like your bullets are whipping through the air at lightning speed.

Each skin's upgrade can be unlocked with ten Radianites.

The special animation you can unlock makes the weapon even better, as shell casings are thrown away with each shot from a slot at the top. This actually makes it look like it was the invention of a genius wizard. The finisher envelops your enemy in a glass vat as if they were your latest experiment.

9 Spirit of ruin

The Ruination collection is quite famous among Valorant players and the Ghost skin from it is another excellent option to add to your collection. Its design comes in four colors and it looks like a weapon encasing a strange misty substance.

One of its upgrades is a VFX that gives the weapon a mystical flash from the muzzle with every shot. Another VFX available for this skin causes it to emit a dark aura when pulled out and trigger a new reload animation. As a finisher, the enemy is possessed by a League of Legends character named Viego.

8 Gaia's vengeful spirit

Gaia's Vengeance is undoubtedly one of Valorant's most eye-catching skin lines, and the Ghost from the collection is particularly popular among the community. Its design transforms the spirit into a gun-shaped crystal encased in wood.

A VFX of this skin is a glowing flash from its muzzle, paired with an ethereal sound effect when it is fired. Another VFX makes the ghost shine beautifully in the light. The finisher is very great as the enemy turns into a large tree after being defeated.

7 Brave heroic spirit

The spirit of the brave hero is inspired by Sun Wukong from “Journey to the West”, a Chinese novel. This skin comes in four color variants: Black with Gold Trim, Sunset, Dusk and Night, and the beautiful, intricately textured design really makes it special.

By upgrading this skin, the muzzle will glow every time the weapon is fired, paired with a slight metallic sound effect. When you unlock the animation, the weapon gains a glowing effect and also emits mist. The finisher is impressive as Sun Wukong arrives to seemingly finish off the enemy with an epic series of moves.

6 Singularity Mind

The Singularity Ghost has a sleek, simple design that makes it look like a weapon made from cosmic energy fragments. The shine that it radiates from the cracks gives it its mysterious character. When upgraded, a ball of cosmic energy can be seen at the tip of the muzzle every time the weapon is fired.

If you get the weapon's animation, its fragments will float above the crystal body every time the weapon is pulled out. The finisher summons the cosmos behind the enemy, with a black hole of cosmic energy drawing them in.

5 Radiant Entertainment System Ghost

The Radiant Entertainment System Ghost is something for fans of retro themes. This skin comes in three colors and features the buttons of a handheld gaming console. The design is bright and fun and looks almost like a toy rather than a deadly weapon.

The different game cartridges loaded into each weapon depend on the skin variant unlocked. The three different cartridges are Bazooka Badger, Dance Fever and K.nock O.out!!

The skin's first upgrade gives it a fun gunshot sound reminiscent of the sound effects of retro games. In addition, pixel blocks flash from the muzzle with every shot. Unlocking the animation gives the weapon a pixelated finish. The finisher varies by color, each offering a different game that rewards you with a fun meter after the final kill.

4 Evori Dreamwings Ghost

If you like a dreamy and magical aesthetic, the Evori Dreamwings Ghost is the skin for you. This delightful weapon gives the ghost a beautiful crystalline body with a muzzle made of a floating crystal shard. It even has a few hearts decorating it in several places.

The sound effect that can be unlocked is equally enchanting, with a slight magical sound, chimes, and a heart flash with each bullet fired. When you unlock the animation, a cute creature will appear when you inspect the weapon. The finisher has four magical companions who take the final enemy to another realm.

3 XERØFANG spirit

The Xerofang Ghost is another beautiful design that gives the weapon an elegant metallic coat with geometric textures. The sound effect you can unlock provides a less harsh gunshot sound with a glowing flash at the end of the muzzle when fired.

The animation causes the weapon's textures to move and also emits a thin line of smoke when shots are spammed. The finisher causes the victim to explode into crystal fragments, forming a dragon's head.

2 Sovereign Spirit

The Sovereign Ghost gives the weapon a smooth, pearlescent finish with four different color options. It is lined all around with an elegant metal design. One of the visual effects the skin features gives it a colored flash at the end of the muzzle when fired. It also emits smoke, giving the impression that the weapon is heating up with each shot.

Another VFX makes the weapon glow everywhere and the gem on the back glows after a kill. The finisher summons a large glowing greatsword that falls upon the enemy, obliterating them.

1 Reaver spirit

The Reaver Ghost can be described as a skin that looks like it was designed by Omen. It has sharp edges all over and a bandage around the handle. Unlocking its visual effects gives gunfire a dark and mysterious sound and a shadowy animation that bursts at the end of its muzzle.

The animation causes a wave of shadows to slide over the weapon and reloading is done using telekinesis. His finisher causes the enemy to be pulled through multiple arms through a dark portal that opens from a rune on the ground.
