VALORANT Patch Notes 13.04

v13.04official notes ↗

TL;DR

  1. New map rotation and bug fixes for Agents and melee skins
  2. TLDR; Goodbye  Breeze and hello  Abyss ! There’s a new map rotation in our Competitive and Deathmatch queues, and we fixed some issues with Agent bugs and transforming melees like Kuronami 2.0 and Nocturnum.
  3. Happy Patch Day, it’s Emily again! Act 5 is here, and with it a few fixes to keep your ranked grind consistent. Have y’all checked out the new skinline? You should really spam that flex…
  4. While we’re starting Act 5 with some minor bug fixes and adjustments, keep an eye out for news coming in September. I sense a new Dev Update on the horizon, and some other game updates we are stoked to reveal! That’s all for now, GLHF!
  5. Fixed an issue where  Cypher's Spycam minimap icon was rotated incorrectly.

VALORANT Patch Notes 13.05

v13.05
  • TLDR; Pick’ Ems for Champs, penalties for stream sniping and instalock tools, and future changes to the Agent Gear system so make sure to grind it out and get all the items now!
  • Sound Sprays Based on your feedback, we've adjusted the sound attenuation for all sound sprays so you'll only be able to hear the sounds if you're nearby to ensure teams can communicate effectively. This will be a standard for all future audio sprays.
  • Fixed an issue where Agent Ultimate voiceover could continue playing from an enemy's perspective after the Agent casting the Ultimate was killed.
