Riot Games just dropped a ton of new stuff for VALORANT’s fifth year. One of the most requested features is finally here: replay.
Replay is coming

It’s coming to PCs with update 11.06 in September. Consoles get it later in 2025. Riot says the first version will let you analyze recent competitive matches. They plan to add it to other modes later.
Balance and skills

The team is checking the game’s balance and skills. They tweaked the power and counterattack potential for some abilities. Some visuals got a boost:
- Minimap
- Brimstone’s molotov sound
- Raze’s explosion visuals
- Deadlock’s Barrier indicators
New map

A new map hits competitive play on patch 11.00. The community’s already playing it, and the team wants to help you learn it better in competitive mode.
