VALORANT to Introduce Several New Agents in 2023

Exciting News for VALORANT Fans: Three New Agents Coming in 2023

If you’re a fan of VALORANT, get ready to be thrilled because Riot Games has just announced that they will be introducing three new agents to the game this year.

John Goscicki, the character producer for VALORANT at Riot, confirmed that players can expect the arrival of these three new agents in 2023.

What to Expect from the New Agents

Riot has been tight-lipped about the details of the third agent, but they did reveal that there will be a new initiator and a new sentinel launching later this year. Speculations suggest that a completely new agent class may also be introduced, but this has yet to be confirmed.

Ensuring Balance and Variety

Goscicki emphasized the importance of maintaining a balance between roles and play styles as more agents are added to the game. While every class may not necessarily have an equal number of agents, Riot aims to ensure an overall equilibrium across all roles, providing a diverse and engaging gameplay experience.

In the upcoming agent release, Goscicki hinted that the new addition will offer unique abilities, particularly in corner-checking and location navigation. However, further details were not disclosed.

The Impact of the Latest Agent

Controller Harbor, the most recent agent added to VALORANT, made his debut in October last year. While he hasn’t been popular in ranked and other game modes, he has been making waves in the professional scene. According to VALORANT data site The Spike, Harbor has been picked nine times in VCT LOCK//IN, while Brimstone, another controller, has only been chosen seven times so far.

Exciting times lie ahead for VALORANT players, with the promise of fresh gameplay experiences brought by the arrival of new agents. Start sharpening your skills and get ready to embrace the challenges that await!
