Valorant’s upcoming agent codenamed “Sprinter” might be the fastest in the game

Valorant is well-known for its unique take on the entire first-person shooter genre with its twist on the already existing environment.

One of the key features that Valorant has incorporated into their FPS game is the MOBA elements or mechanics to bring interesting gameplay opportunities to its players.

All these special elements are brought through in-game characters called agents who can help the team out. These agents are classified into four groups or classes: Duelist, Initiator, Sentinel, and Controller.

With the nearing of Valorant’s next Act, leaks have already started to surface regarding the new agent that will join the roster of playable characters.

Furthermore, the new agent's codename is "Sprinter," providing validity to the concept that the agent's skill is focused on speed.

Some Details:Female from the Philippines. The image had the name "Bilis" which means speed in Tagalog. This is most likely the agent code-named "Sprinter".

Some fans have made witty remarks regarding the illustration mentioned above by calling the new agent “Sonic The Hedgehog.” It's natural to assume that way, given that the new agent's illustration artworks depict lightning coming from her shoes and her ability to move quickly.

The agent's overall effect on Valorant is unknown. However, it would be interesting to see another Duelist who has movement-based abilities.
