Riot has shown first gameplay footage of the new agent Gekko in VALORANT. Agent 22 gets help from little friendly creatures in the process.
Agent 22 will join the VALORANT team in the next ranked section in VALORANT. So far, we could only speculate about his background and abilities. Now Riot has revealed a trailer and more detailed information about his abilities.
Gekko is the name of the new agent. He is a skater with neon green hair from Los Angeles, his parents are from Mexico.
So far there has only been speculation about Gekko after character producer John Goscicki talked about the next three VALORANT agents in a video.
