Episode 3 Act 3 also has a new release date of November 9th, which is expected to be the primary act for Valorant Champions 2021.

With a new act, the developers usually introduce new weapon cosmetic skins and bundles, as well as a new agent. The Battle Pass traditionally contains three unique weapon sets to grind and collect.

Episode 3 Act 2 could also see the introduction of Valorant’s seventh map, which has been teased for a while. As for the new agent for Episode 3 Act 2, a teaser image leaked earlier of a person with a sniper rifle.

The buzz is already off the charts for Valorant Episode 3 Act 2, which is set for September 9th, 2021.
