Gift of the Rift bundle: price, contents, release date
Riftbound Gift of the Rift bundle: release date, $109 suggested price, the 16 packs and Akali promo inside, and what the packs are worth, in USD and CAD.
Gift of the Rift is a Riftbound bundle that reaches local game stores and other retailers on December 4, 2026, at a suggested price of $109 USD, according to Riot's announcement. It holds 16 booster packs from Riftbound's five main sets, 36 foil Runes, Akali sleeves, a 2,000-card storage box and, in the English version, an alternate-art Akali, Rogue Assassin promo. Presales already sold at $280.54 USD on November 6, 2026 (about $396 CAD), more than twice the suggested price. Riot calls it a celebration of "the first year of Riftbound", which is why it is also searched as the year one or anniversary bundle.

What is in Gift of the Rift
According to Riot, each Gift of the Rift contains:
- 16 booster packs: 3 Origins, 3 Spiritforged, 3 Unleashed, 3 Vendetta and 4 Radiance
- 36 foil Runes, 6 each of Order, Chaos, Fury, Calm, Mind and Body
- 1 Legend promo card, Rogue Assassin (Akali), in the English version only
- 1 pack of Akali card sleeves, also exclusive to the English version
- 1 card storage box that holds 2,000 cards
Are the packs worth the price?
The 16 packs inside, at their single-pack market prices on November 6, 2026:
| Set | Packs | Price per pack | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Origins | 3 | $12.59 | $37.77 |
| Spiritforged | 3 | $7.15 | $21.45 |
| Unleashed | 3 | $6.70 | $20.10 |
| Vendetta | 3 | $5.00 | $15.00 |
| Radiance | 4 | $5.13 | $20.52 |
| All 16 packs | $114.84 |
The packs alone are worth about $114.84, a little more than the $109 suggested price, before the promo, Runes, sleeves and box. At the $280.54 presale price, you pay $165.70 more than the packs are worth on their own: what you buy is the Akali promo and the extras. Single-pack prices move every day, and the Origins pack is the most expensive of the five.
The Akali promo
The promo is a Legend card of Akali, Rogue Assassin with new art, only in the English version. It is a new version with its own market: it is not listed yet, so it has no price.
Where to buy Gift of the Rift
- Your local game store, at or near the $109 suggested price. Ask about preorders now, since presales already sell for more than twice that.
- Other retailers that carry Riftbound, from December 4.
- Resale: compare the presale price on Kontora before you pay more than the suggested price.
