Bind

Split is returning to the Competitive and Unrated map rotation. Bind and Breeze are temporarily out.

KAY/O, Skye, and Jett are on the balance block. Five maps get some stronger crates for safer planting.

Our 3D Environment Artist breaks open how VALORANT maps are built from the inside out.

Competitive goes live! Also, a fresh Menu UI, surrender option, and balance for Viper, Jett, and Reyna.

New launch stuff! Also, major balance updates for 5 Agents, and performance and hit registration improvements.

Credit cap, ability cost adjustments, as well as important Agent and weapon updates are part of this beefy patch.

QoL improvements for Phoenix, Observer mode, the Spike, and Competitive mode.

These lightweight patch notes bridge the alpha and closed beta.
