Sapphire is preparing a Valor Mortis edition of its Nitro+ Radeon RX 9070 XT OC, a themed variant created with dev studio One More Level and publisher Lyrical Games to coincide with their first-person Soulslike action game launch on October 13, 2026.

This isn't Sapphire's first themed card; the most recent was the Nitro+ RX 9070 XT OC Crimson Desert edition. The Valor Mortis variant follows the same path: a custom logo on the fans and a magnetic backplate decorated with game artwork.

Even if not officially announced yet, the GPU, memory, cooling, and factory overclock likely won't change as the specs would match the Crimson Desert edition. This means up to 3060 MHz boost clock and 2520 MHz game clock, with 16 GB of 256-bit GDDR6 at 20 Gbps. A copy of the game comes bundled, but Sapphire did not mention which edition. Pricing or exact release date has not been announced. We estimate availability around October 13 or shortly after.

As a side note, Sapphire is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. Founder and CEO KD Au said the milestone "belongs to our customers, our partners at AMD, and every member of the SAPPHIRE team."
