Riot Games and VALORANT today revealed Glitch, the newest Team Deathmatch map launching on October 23, 2024. Featuring dual visual themes, Glitch pits VALORANT agents in a “glitched out” Maxbot simulated arena with one side of the map taking players to an “abandoned” version of Sunset while they experience a “winter” Haven on the opposite side.
Episode 9 Act III also brings players a new skinline, Doombringer. Weapons included in Doombringer are the Sheriff, Phantom, Judge, Odin and new melee type – the Battleaxe. The new Battle Pass this episode will feature items such as the Torque Vandal, Nanobreak Phantom and Chilling Nugget Gun Buddy.
Additionally, tune in to the Game Changers Championship, taking place in Berlin from November 8-17! This tournament represents the culmination of the 2024 Game Changers Series and will feature ten top-tier teams representing their regional communities. Squads earned their spots through victories at major events and collecting the highest circuit points in their competitions. From North America to EMEA, APAC, CN, Brazil, and Latin America, the tournament is a reflection of the most skilled women in VALORANT.
Episode 9 Act III begins October 23, 2024 with Doombringer available to players on October 24.
