New "Foxtrot" Unreleased Map Loading Music:

Because of this audio, I highly assume the map will be tropical / exotic themed.

A few things showing Riot still working on the Console versions of the game.

A network error for Xbox LIVE and some Gamepad inputs were added today.

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

Riot has added a "Friendly Fire Tracker" to the PBE build of the game.

Riot may be looking to punish players (in the form of a queue cooldown) who consistently use abilities like satchels & nanoswarms to damage their own team. This feature isn't currently live.

A small hotfix was pushed to all regions yesterday. This included:

- A bug fix for chromas not working correctly with the 3rd variant of the Sentinel Of Light Ares skin.

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

Smaller updates from today's 3.04 patch:

- Split was refurbished for Valorant Masters Berlin (comp tournament).
- The Blade of the Ruined King melee received an audio loop. This wind SFX will play during inspection.

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

New Ceremony strings were added today in 3.04 (round endings like "ACE" and "THRIFTY").

- Simultaneous Elimination
- Simultaneous Elimination - Spike Not Planted
- Simultaneous Elimination - Spike Planted

A very light patch dropped today:

- Act extended by 2 weeks
- Phoenix's Wall got a new audio file, along with some VFX changes.
- You can now get assists for healing a teammate
- Round endings like "ACE" and "THRIFTY" have been re-grouped as "Ceremonies", more could be added

@Shiick Riot turning Yoru into fucking Mirage OMEGALUL

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

Riot has added a plug-in to the PBE build, adding support for the Houdini Engine.

Riot may be experimenting with Houdini's very powerful procedural FX's system to test performance, among other things.

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

Riot has given us a first hint at the next map, codenamed "Canyon".

A material was added for a vent's fog effect. This was probably shipped accidentally, but Riot may announce this map closer to the start of Episode 3 Act 2.

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

Episode 4 Act Dates (Subject to change):

Act 1: January 11th, 2022 - March 1st, 2022
Act 2: March 1st, 2022 - April 26th, 2022
Act 3: April 26th, 2022 - June 21st, 2022

@DT95014548 For now? Nothing, Riot just cleaned them up a bit / reworked them on an internal level.

Just seems like useless update if they aren't planning on adding more "Round Titles" down the line, but it could also just be Riot trying to stay organized ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@NithProYT Huh, I forgot about this, and Riot seems to have as well.

Gifting will be coming to Valorant by the end of 2020!

@ValorantUpdated Who is the artist bro… at least repost with credit

[Valorant Express @ValorantExpress]

In 3.01, a blueprint for Automatic Ziplines was added.

You will probably be able to walk up to a zipline and immediately attach to it, without a keybind. I highly doubt this will replace the old version, just a new option for those who may want it.
