Now, VALORANT 5.04 or VALORANT Episode 5 Act 2, the latest major patch for the FPS genre from Riot Games, is counting down to the full release of the mainstream game tonight. ..
Because now in VALORANT, the Public Beta Environment (PBE) server has tested many new systems that will be added to VALORANT Episode 5 Act 2. Whether it’s adding features to the Crosshair target system or a cool new mode like ARUM (read more)
But even in VALORANT 5.04 there are many updates, but some players are secretly hoping that Riot Games may launch a new character agent to welcome VALORANT Episode 5 Act 2. Because this patch comes right around the time the VALORANT Champions 2022 World Championship kicks off (so what would Riot Games surprise players with by launching a new agent in the middle of the Lan event? that looks good, not less)
But ValorLeaks, the well-known data miner of VALORANT, has posted a heartbreaking message for all of those players. Because the news clearly confirmed that “VALORANT Episode 5 Act 2” or VALORANT 5.04 will not add agents to the game for sure. And there will be no balance for the maps that are currently in the game. “Make it more playful” (keep haunting the Pearl stage, everyone)
There will be no new Agent or Map Changes with Act 2.
Act 2 will launch with a New Battlepass, Champions Event Pass, Champions Bundle, and the new Crosshair Copy/Settings Features. | #VALUATING

For the reason Riot Games made that decision. This is partly because the VALORANT Champions 2022 tournament is nearing its opening. So if there’s a new character agent VALORANT added, or the map balance has been slightly adjusted, I can assure you that it will affect the world championships at the end of the year more or less.
So anyone who is waiting for the new character agent VALORANT or waiting for the balance of Pearl map and other maps, let’s just wait a little longer, because Riot Games are going to be putting their best into the competition. VALORANT Champions 2022 is in progress, and the map balance patch is expected to arrive after the tournament is over. Because by that time, the fist camp would have had enough information about where they should be adjusted or added..
