Insider Scoop: VALORANT developers hint at their upcoming agents

VALORANT Teases New Agents That Could Shake Up the Meta

The developers of VALORANT have given fans a sneak peek at the upcoming agents that will be joining the game. Based on the hints provided, it seems that information-based agents like Cypher and Sova might face some challenges with the arrival of these new characters.

We have been treated to an image of a potential armor-wearing agent, and there are also hints of a beanie-wearing character in a tweet from June 22. This new “Kingdom Scientist” agent is seen wearing glasses, a beanie, and a thick parka jacket.

The developers have already confirmed that two new agents will be introduced by the end of 2023. There have been leaks hinting at the name of the agent, but we will have to wait for the official reveal of their abilities.

VALORANT’s next agent, the 23rd in the game, is expected to be equipped with a strong set of utility abilities. This could potentially challenge the dominance of characters like Cypher and Sova. It looks like 2023 will be an exciting year for VALORANT fans, as there will be more than just the Deadlock agent to look forward to.

The next agent, announced in a developer update on June 6, is a duelist.

Players will have to wait until the release of Season Seven on June 27, 2023, for more information. As the Season premiere draws near, we can expect to learn more about the upcoming agent.

We can anticipate the introduction of VALORANT’s team deathmatch mode with the arrival of Season Seven, along with the possibility of a new agent. With two new agents on the horizon, the VALORANT meta is set to undergo significant changes.
