Hi gamers, get ready for the massive update, and that is not a normal update! That is a huge update from VALORANT. They are adding many things to the game, like new maps, and also talking about replays. But the main update highlight is! Valorant upgraded its game engine, and that was crazy. That’s all part of its 5th-year celebration.
The Balance Act: Abilities vs. Gunplay
They are focusing more on gunfight directly instead of using more and more special abilities, and also they are reducing the range of an ability or the visibility of some powerful abilities. An unlimited ability is no longer a player to earn his irony, and an unlimited ability looks like massy and overwhelming, so they focus a player to get more focused in a direct gun fight. Also, they mention some aigent abilities are getting price limited, a first ability is free! But, if you want to use more! You want to pay 150 credits.
The NEW Map: Masters Toronto Reveal!
VALORANT is announcing a brand-new map, which will be revealed at the Masters Toronto tournament! They are focusing on complex design and layout so players can build different strategies and have more fun. This map is built specifically to make players think differently about how they approach gameplay. Plus, for the first two weeks after the map’s release, if any player loses an RR match on it, their losses will be cut by 5
0%!
Tackling Smurfs & Better Player Behavior
Riot Games is truly listening to players! VALORANT is becoming a much fairer and more fun game for everyone. They are taking strict action against cheaters and smurfs, and this is the happiest news for new players! Why? Because some experienced players make new accounts just to dominate new players, which makes it incredibly hard for beginners to truly enjoy the game and improve their skills, so they can’t improve. Riot wants a clean and better game for all. So, after this update, new players can jump into matches without fear, focusing on the fun and excitement of playing their best!
Premiere & VCT Evolution: The Future of VALORANT Esports
For Premiere Updates, get ready for team tags in Patch 11.0 for weekly matches, plus special recognition for playoff winners! As for VCT’s Big Future, Riot has huge plans for the competitive scene (VCT) heading into 2027. Their main goals are to make it more open (connecting pro play with community tournaments) and more flexible (with varied competitions and events).
Game Changing Tech: Unreal Engine 5 Upgrade!
Get ready for a massive tech upgrade! VALORANT is switching its game engine to the powerful Unreal Engine 5 with Patch 11.02, expected around the end of July. Now, this is a big download, so get your internet ready! The good news is, right away, you shouldn’t see a huge change in how the game looks or feels, but the goal is to improve your frame rate (making the game smoother) and even make future updates download faster.
The Replay System Arrives
Finally, the highly anticipated Replay System is coming to VALORANT! This powerful tool will go live for PC players with Patch 11.06 in September (with consoles later). It lets you re-watch your recent competitive games, switch between player perspectives, use a free-moving camera, and control playback speed. This is useful for all to analyze strategies and improve their skills!
