The speculations and leaks can now finally be put to rest as Valorant reveals a new trailer for Episode 2. This beautifully crafted trailer confirmed a number of things that were leaked a few days ago. It seems like the new agent will indeed take on the lurker role that the game desperately needed, and the trailer further showcases a few abilities from his kit.
It seems like the developers of the game are gearing up for 2021, starting with the new agent. In the previous year, they had revealed that the game needed to have a much larger roster and a map pool. More elements in the picking phase will grant the game a much needed tactical depth.
