Riot Games has offiically launched VALORANT Episode 4, Act 3 today, and the company released a kick-off trailer to showcase the major update's new content.
The biggest addition is the new Turkish VALORANT Agent named Fade. She's an Initiator type with information-gathering fear-themed shadowy abilities, including an ultimate ability that unleashes a wave of nightmare energy that could blind, deafen, and mark enemies in the area with terror trails.

Just like previous VALORANT acts, Episode 4, Act 3 comes with a new Battlepass that includes new sets of weapon skins, player cards, titles, sprays, and gun buddies you can unlock, but of course, you need to upgrade the Battlepass for 1,000 VP (about $10 USD) if you want to unlock the premium rewards.
The major update will also add the RGX 11z PRO weapon skin bundle, which includes awesome new weapon skins for the Classic, Phantom, Operator, Spectre, and a glowing "Firefly" butterfly knife that glows. The entire bundle costs 8,700 VP, and comes with a cool new player card, gun buddy, and spray.
The visuals of these weapon skins are inspired by gaming PCs. Of course, you will need Radianite Points (RP) to fully upgrade these weapons if you want the cool animations, sound effects, finisher, and kill counter.
The VALORANT Patch 4.08 update also comes with tweaks for Neon's abilities as well as upcoming changes for Jett and Sova.
Neon's battery energy boost upon killing an enemy is increased, and she can now slide forward or sideways with her High Gear ability. As for her Fast Lane, teammates will no longer be able to take damage from it.
Sova gets major nerfed changes to his abilities: the duration and health of his Owl Drone is significantly reduced, and max damage of his Shock Dart has been reduced from 90 to 75.
