New Valorant agent Episode 9 reveal date and role confirmed

As a dedicated Valorant fan with years of experience under my belt, I’m beyond excited for the upcoming Episode 9 and the new agent that’s set to join our favorite tactical shooter game. The anticipation has reached an all-time high since Riot Games confirmed the reveal date – August 23rd! The fact that this new character is an initiator, adding to Riot’s roster of seven initiators, only adds to my excitement.

Valorant has experienced an impressive year with the addition of new agent Clove and map Abyss during Episode 8. While Episode 9 hasn’t introduced anything new yet, Riot Games has hinted at the upcoming debut of a fresh Valorant agent. The release date for this new Valorant agent in Episode 9 has been announced together with its role.

I’m excitedly waiting for the official Valorant release date on PS5 and Xbox consoles. A recent leak had us believing it would drop this month, but unfortunately, no announcement has been made by Riot Games yet. In the meantime, you can explore the latest updates and improvements in the 9.01 patch notes. It seems Riot Games have also reportedly shelved a fighting game project within the League of Legends universe that resembled Smash Bros.

I’m thrilled to share that the Valorant Champions 2024 tournament is gearing up for another exciting leg right in the bustling heart of Seoul! And here’s a scoop for all you fans out there: we’ll be unveiling the release date for the long-awaited new agent during Episode 9! Can’t wait to see who joins the roster and brings fresh strategies to the game.

It will be Riot Games’ seventh initiator. Below is the list of initiators currently available:

• Sova
• Breache
• Skye
• KAY/O
• Fade
• Gekko

Sadly, beyond its function and unveiling time, little else is publicly disclosed about the character, based on available information.

In Episode 9’s Act 1 trailer, one of the previews showed a scene. The trailer concluded with a quick, visually striking moment: spiky plant roots and thorns emerging from fissures in the soil.

Furthermore, the Abyss map trailer concluded with an intriguing hint. In this teaser, a claw could be seen enclosed within some container. Initially, the claw remained motionless. However, as if coming to life, it began to move, suggesting that the new agent had emerged from slumber.

Following the previous revelations, ValorantLeaksEN unveiled sneak peeks of the upcoming agent “In Bloom,” also known as “SilverThum.”

Lastly, an hourglass being enveloped in vines as it winds down serves as a hint, maintaining the Episode 9 Act 1 trailer’s closing motif. This could symbolize their powers.
