Valorant Episode 3 Act 3 is coming up next in Riot’s FPS title. There’s already been a couple of leaks, which has led to rampant speculation in the community about the game’s next Agent. Here’s what we know about the update right now.

Valorant Episode 3 Act 2 might still be fresh in players’ minds, but there’s always more to look forward to. Considering Riot skipped a new Agent in the latest update to ship a new map in Fracture, there’s even more hype.

What’s coming in Valorant Episode 3 Act 3?

Agents Deadeye and Sprinter leaked, but who is coming first?

The first major leak of Valorant Episode 3 Act 3 is actually a double-whammy. Two Agents have been datamined out of the game’s code: Deadeye and Sprinter.

Players have gotten a first glimpse of Deadeye in the Year One Review trailer, flashing onto the screen briefly with a massive sniper rifle in tow. Less is known about Sprinter: Only their codename has been revealed.

The question is then: Who launches first? And do they perhaps both launch in Act 3?

Early speculation suggests Deadeye will drop mid-way through Act 2 to make up for the lack of an Agent release there, but nothing has been confirmed yet.

As for the rest of the content coming in Episode 3 Act 3, players shouldn’t expect another map considering Fracture dropped in the last update.

However, the usual goodies like new skin lines, a battle pass, and a few balance changes (potentially the Yoru rework) will appear.

We will keep this piece updated with more information as it arises ahead of Valorant Episode 3 Act 3.
