Previously, there was no information on who may be the next Valorant agent to appear in Episode 5 Act 3, but that has changed with announcements and teases. The news was made available on Valorant's official Twitter account, which featured the new agent and his name in English and Hindi, verifying Harbor's background.
Riot Games' free-to-play first-person hero shooter video game Valorant received the second highest concurrent viewership for any game ever on Twitch when it initially debuted the beta edition in 2020, with 1.73 million viewers turning in across hundreds of broadcasts. Since then, it has been on the incline, with Riot Games releasing new content routinely.
Diving into Harbor's abilities in Valorant
Furthermore, the most recent teaser appears to have disclosed the source of strength for Agent 21, a.k.a. Mage. As discussed in the shooting range teaser, Varun Batra may have gained strength by stealing a powerful magical relic. After stealing a rare and potent artifact, Batra is a renowned fugitive of the covert taskforce Realm.
Riot Games released the Agent trailer for Harbor on October 12, 2022, around a week before his official debut. Fans may see the entire trailer titled 'Turn The Tides' on the Valorant YouTube channel.
The trailer begins in Delhi with a motorbike pursuit in which two other riders pursue Harbor. On the other hand, the Agent is quick to lose them, shutting them down with a missile from his motorbike and a wall of water, respectively. This implies that the new Agent will be able to control the water.
Hailing from India’s coast, Harbor storms the field, wielding ancient technology with dominion over water. He unleashes frothing rapids and crushing waves to shield his allies and pummel those that oppose him. Here are Harbor's abilities
