Instead, the next major update will focus on big reworks for Yoru, Icebox, and more — here’s what we know so far. Valorant Episode 4 Act 1 started with a spark of energy brought along by the electric Neon. However, for those hoping for plenty of new maps and Agents, Riot are cooling things off a touch in the next release. Episode 4 Act 2 will be Valorant’s first without a new Agent or map. However, it’ll focus on big gameplay reworks that are long overdue for Yoru, Icebox, and more. There’ll still be some new content in the form of cosmetics too. Here’s what we know about Valorant Episode 4 Act 2 so far. Riot GamesNeon will still be Valorant’s newest release after Episode 4 Act 2 with no new Agent planned.

When is Valorant Episode 4 Act 2

Riot has confirmed Valorant’s Episode 4 Act 2 is all set to begin on March 1, 2022. This lines up with when the Act 1 battle pass wraps up too — with no downtime expected. The Act release usually brings a glut of new content to dive into, but Episode 4 Act 2 will be a bit different to others, so let’s break it down.

What s coming in Valorant Episode 4 Act 2

No new maps or agents but lots of other updates

In a January 27 video, developer Anna Donlon explained no new agents or maps would be coming in Valorant Episode 4 Act 2 in order to focus on “the overall health” of the game.

We hold a pretty high bar for ourselves and it was incredible to see you push it even higher,” she stated. “Dreams like ours should be built on a super strong foundation, and that is going to be the overall theme of [Episode 4] Act 2.”

Yoru rework finally going live

The long-awaited Yoru rework is planned to go live in Valorant Episode 4 Act 2, coming with its launch on Valorant patch 4.04. The changes will expand the Japanese’s duelists bag of tricks to keep enemies guessing. His Fakeout footsteps are being replaced by a carbon copy of Yoru, making it less clear to enemies which is the real one. The clone, when shot, will explode and debuff nearby enemies. Yoru’s Gatecrash teleport will also be improved by adding a fake teleport option onto it, while Dimensional Drift will be getting a series of changes to make it more powerful, including the ability to cast utility while in his ulitmate. Riot GamesThe Yoru rework will finally arrive in Valorant Episode 4 Act 2.

First-ever Community battle pass coming

No new Agent or map? That doesn’t mean no content overall. One of the brand-new features coming to Valorant Episode 4 Act 2 is the Community battle pass. Read More: Valorant players want Riot to copy simple CS:GO skin feature It’s the same as a regular battle pass — just with plenty of community-made content instead. Each battle pass will also be region-specific based on what players vote for in their respective regions. This is on top of a regular battle pass with three new skin lines and plenty of community memes — including the saving of Widejoy. Riot GamesThe Community battle pass has been a long time coming in Valorant. Outside of the reworks and the battle pass, Riot has promised more open communication with players, so expect plenty of dev updates on social media. Donlon also confirmed a new Agent will be coming in April’s Act 3, but there’s still no release date for Valorant’s eighth map.
