The VALORANT developers have released more information about Agent 23. We explain what is already known about him now.

VALORANT is getting another new agent. After the release of the last character Gekko, the developers now gave a little insight into Agent 23.

Abilities of Agent 23

In a video about the rest of the plans of the VALORANT developers in 2023, a little was already revealed about the upcoming agent. It is said to be a Sentinel that leaves enemies “rooted to the spot” and pulls them in for a “closer inspection”.

Not much else is revealed in the video and the room for interpretation leaves a lot open. The ability kit could include a root, for example. Also, there could be an ability that reveals information (such as cooldowns) about the enemies or moves them involuntarily.

Traitorous Waffles

A picture of Agent 23’s presumed workplace suggests that he too – like Killjoy, Raze and co – relies on the help of tech gadgets.

The blue device is reminiscent of the “Death Trap” player card from the last Battlepass. It’s customary for Riot to hide a teaser of the upcoming agent in this one.

But a very different detail has the community in a speculative mood.

In addition to the tools, a coffee cup and a plate with waffles can be seen on the table. According to the community, the heart-shaped waffles originated in Scandinavia. The brown topping could be “Brunost”, a sweet cheese that originates from Norway.

Further references to the origin

The Night Market also condenses these clues. For its design is reminiscent of the Northern Lights. In addition, Jett talks in a message on the PBE server about a Kingdom project that is to take place in Norway

Possible Teaser at VCT Masters

Riot likes to tease the next VALORANT agent at Esport events. So it was with both Fade and Gekko.

Next up is the VCT Masters Tokyo 2023 and Riot may well reveal more about Agent 23 during the finals.

New maps, team deathmatch and legacy shop

More exciting changes to VALORANT were announced in the developer video. Starting with Episode 7 (end of June), the Team Deathmatch mode will be introduced. There will be special maps for this mode.

In addition, there is to be the possibility of unlocking missed accessories from past Battlepasses. And the manner of agent contracts has also been revised. As the last agent in 2023, a Duelist is to join the VALORANT roster at the end of the year.
