-From the team

New Agent!!!!

Originally from the Philiphinnes, Valorant's new agent Neon equips herself with an asset of electrical abilities and skills.

Her first ability, 'High Gear' when activated, increases her running speed. During activation, Neon is able to slide to evade enemies or to reposition. The slide resets after two kills.

Next up is the 'Relay Bolt', where Neon shoots out a ricocheting electric bolt that bounces once. Upon contact, the bolt electrifies the ground below and creates a concussive blast that concusses enemies that are within the radius of the blast.

Her third ability 'Fast Lane', creates two blue electrical walls that help allies get to cover or to entry site. The walls also help block vision and will damage any enemies who walk through the walls.

Last but not least, Neon's ultimate ability 'Overdrive', where Neon shoots electrical beams out of her fingertips without any movement inaccuracy. During the activation, Neon's movement speed is also increased tremendously.

New Bundle!!!!

Patch Note 3.12

GAME SYSTEM UPDATES

AGENT-SPECIFIC KEYBINDS

We heard you loud and clear. You can now go to the Settings Menu and set different keybinds for each Agent!

Go to Settings >> Controls >> Actions to get started

Added ability to create, delete, and search for keybind profiles for each Agent. You cannot create more than one profile per Agent.

Added ability to copy your default keybindings to a single profile or all profiles at once.

Now when your keybinds are in conflict, you can see what other items the binding is assigned to.

You can revert individual changes made to bindings in each keybind profile. Reverting will reset the keybind to what it was at the time the profile was created.

SOCIAL UPDATES

Report in Agent Select is now live!

You can now report disruptive players during the pregame. Just hover over the name and click REPORT.

You can also add players to your friends list if you have a positive experience.

Friendly Fire detection

You better stop purposely blasting grenades on your teammates cause we’re tracking them and will be punishing excessive damage to allies!

PROGRESSION UPDATES

Wide Player Cards

After community feedback we are bringing back the Wide Player cards that are shown during the Loading Screens and in the kill banners.

MODES UPDATES

SPIKE RUSH

Chamber's Headhunter (Q) charges reduced 8>>>4

We're docking this ability specifically because it undermines the core mechanic of Spike Rush, which is to see what happens when everyone has the same gun. With this change we hope that you will get value out of Headhunter, while still resorting to the selected weapon for that round.

GENERAL

Integrated select changes and bug fixes for Slate/UI from Unreal Engine 4.26 and 4.27.

BUGS

AGENTS

Fixed a bug that caused abilities that consist of a held object to display incorrectly in third person. You’ll notice this fix on Skye, Sage, Jett, Yoru, and Reyna.

SOCIAL

Fixed a bug where players were able to spam invite others to party.
