With Valorant patch 7.03, Riot brings the third update in Episode 7 Act 1 that includes some quality-of-life changes, store updates, and more. Here’s everything included in the patch notes for the 7.03 update.

Unlike some previous Valorant updates, patch 7.03 is a relatively small one. It mostly includes quality-of-life changes as the devs have restructured the rendering system, favoriting items after purchase from the store, and some more.

The new patch also includes some player behavior updates, bringing a new way of muting people in the lobby. Here’s what Valorant patch 7.03 brings to the table.

With the Valorant patch 7.03, Riot has incorporated a rendering system restructure that will make it easier for them to maintain the system in the future.
