Structured from Riot's official patch notes. The bullets below are the announced changes; anything VALDB detected in the game files beyond them lives on the detected changes feed and is never mixed into this page.

Overview

I will be out of the office starting (Breeze) until (Breeze) . For urgent matters, you can contact (Someone Else) .

Breeze

Introducing the newest map, Breeze, to the VALORANT map pool. Breeze is set on a remote island distinguished by its bright, playful, and colorful environment, with wide open spaces and opportunities for long range encounters.

  • Breeze will launch alongside a Breeze-only Unrated queue that will remain active for two weeks

COMPETITIVE UPDATES

  • Added a Breeze-only Unrated queue for those who want to grind our new map
  • This queue will only be active for two weeks. During this two week period, Breeze will not be available in the standard Unrated or Competitive queues. Following this period, the Breeze-only queue will be disabled and Breeze will then become available in the existing Unrated and Competitive queues.
  • Reminder! This is the last Act to work for your Episode 2 Rank Reward, awarded after the end of Act III

GAME SYSTEM UPDATES

  • Coach slots have been added to Tournament Mode Custom Games
  • Coach slots Current Functionality:
  • Coaches cannot use Map Pings, Team Chat, or Voice Chat in-game.
  • Coaches can use All Chat and Party Chat to allow for cases where they may need to communicate with a Tournament Moderator.
  • Coaches can pause a match in cases where that functionality is allowed to players.

HRTF

  • We've heard your requests (and where they came from)! Weapon drop sounds have been added to HRTF.

SOCIAL UPDATES

  • Reporter Feedback has been added into the game
  • Thanks for helping make VALORANT a better place for everyone and keep those reports coming :)
