Meet The New Occult Vampire In Valorant

Riot Games has revealed its 11th Valorant agent. The trailer for the agent dropped just two days after the closed beta. The new agent is the Mexican Reyna, a woman with extraordinary capabilities. The 30-second trailer does not disclose much about the character, but it shows how powerful she is.

Reyna’s abilities

The trailer suggests that Reyna could be a vampire-like character with her ability to absorb the ‘soul orb’ after each kill. By the looks of it, these orbs help her unleash some of her powers. The orbs only remain for a limited time after the kill, so players should be quick to collect them.

The trailer shows two of her special moves; one to heal herself and the other that could blind Reyna’s enemy. The opponents can still destroy the blinding sphere, but given the agility of the character, she wouldn’t take much time to kill.

Reyna’s ultimate move, called ‘Empress,’ raises all her powers to the maximum. This includes a faster rate of fire, reloading, and enhanced orb skills. Given all this, Reyna seems like the most powerful character in-game. However, character developer for Valorant Morello tweeted that if Reyna doesn’t get kills, she’s nearly useless. This further confirms the vampire traits of the character. Vampires are known to be vulnerable and weak without kills, and Reyna seems similar.

Players who pick Reyna better be sure to go on a killing spree. Her abilities could fetch you all the points needed for your win.

Valorant releases on June 2

Valorant is a fast-paced 5v5 team shooter that will likely compete with games such as CS: GO. Riot Games completed a successful beta run, and the game is all set to launch on June 2, 2020.

Valorant will be a PC exclusive for now, and it could be a while before it makes its way to other console platforms. For now, PC gamers can get their hands on the game without any hassles.
Riot Games could surprise us with many other launches, and we, for one, are excited.
