June 2 was the Valorant release date was aiming for internally even since before the COVID-19 pandemic began. Thankfully, development wasn’t affected and Riot Games looks to be on track for its intended launch date.
The full version of Valorant will also include a new Agent, new map, and new game mode. Speaking to Geoff Keighley, Game Director Joe Ziegler described the mode to be a shorter one, while executive producer Anna Donlon revealed that it’s not team deathmatch.
The new game mode will also launch with a beta tag as it didn’t get any testing during the closed beta. Alongside these additions, players can also expect a new Battle Pass and a variety of new skins.
The ongoing Valorant closed beta will end a few days before the full launch. Player accounts will also be wiped.
