How To Get New Valorant Skins, Play New Agents & Maps BEFORE Everyone Else!

July 23 PBE will focus on the following changes:

Gameplay Tech

• More Crosshair customization settings – You can now customize your Aim Down Sights crosshair and Sniper Scope dot. Also, you can now save multiple crosshair profiles.

  • NOTE: please keep profile names under 25 characters and only save up to 10 profiles

Maps

• You can now shoot through Radianite crates,with appropriate weapons, from all angles. Previously, you could shoot through some crates from limited directions, but not others.

• Updated ziplines to allow the ‘Use’ key so you can detach at any point

Network Ping

• Improved the accuracy and responsiveness for the ping calculation

• Ping stats now show both the average and the max ping values to help you better understand your networking conditions

Bug Fixes

• Viper: Fixed a bug where Viper’s Pit started forming at the cursor placement point instead of around Viper

• Fixed a big where Killjoy’s turret was not affected by concuss

• Fixed Astra’s Gravity Well from pulling people while they were attached to ascenders

• Fixed a bug where Astra could activate Dissipate while attached to ascenders

• Fixed Boombot, Owl Drone, and Fakeout from destroying Sage’s Barrier Orb if placed in a way that overlapped a segment of the barrier wall.

PBE changes that also need testing:

• Inviting more of you to test our PBE capacity

• Fixed an issue with game starts we saw during PBE launch

• Shop that functions differently from Live game: All skins are unlocked and on rotation! Try and break it.

• All Agents unlocked: Note that contracts are not free—this is intended. Unlocking with XP is the only option. We won’t be giving out VP.

• Wider matchmaking bands – intentional to help with queue times

• Penalties are adjusted to link with Live.
