Patch 5.04 includes some much-needed changes to the crosshair system, two Agent bug fixes, and some clarity on the game's transition to Unreal Engine 4.26. The new patch is in beta testing, which is scheduled to end on August 22 at 11 AM PDT, and will drop in the global version soon after testing ends. With Valorant Champions 2022 closing in, Riot Games would naturally want to promote the event in all possible ways. The upcoming Act is expected to host a theme related to Champions 2022, with a home screen reflecting the grand trophy and the in-game store hosting a premium weapons collection. When is the new patch 5 04 dropping in Valorant and what will it include Patch 5.04 is expected to become available in Valorant's global version on August 23, a day after the ongoing PBE phase ends. The ongoing Act will end on August 22, and Episode 5 Act 2 is expected to start on either August 23 or August 24. VALORANT@PlayVALORANTDM your duo and get in queue.

However, it will add some much-needed changes to the crosshair system, guaranteed to increase the usability of the customization options. Furthermore, two bugs involving Chamber and Yoru have been addressed with the patch. Players can destroy Chamber's Trademark with a melee weapon, which was prevented by a bug earlier. The patch will also fix another bug that caused Yoru's Gate Crash to leave its floor markers in the wrong locations. If Episode 5 Act 2 starts in the next couple of days, patch 5.04 should also be responsible for introducing a new Battle Pass. The premium pass will include 50 tiers of rewards, possibly based on the theme of Valorant Champions 2022.

There is basically nothing.53210This upcoming act is going to be so disappointing to so many. There is basically nothing. While Riot Games plans to pay tribute to the upcoming event via an in-game theme, fans may face huge disappointment when the new Act starts. Alongside some exciting changes, the community expected Riot to drop a new Agent in the next couple of days. However, things don't seem to be turning out as anticipated. Riot Games may release all the anticipated content after Valorant Champions ends on September 18. However, releasing significant features in between Acts is not something Riot regularly does.
