Valorant Agent 18 Leaks, Release Date

BY JC Paredes • 5 years AGO • 2 MIN READ

There’s still a long way to go until Valorant Agent 18 appears. However, we’re getting some initial glimpses of the mysterious figure, who should appear in Episode 3 Act 3 of the game!

Players are still getting used to the effect of the most recent Agent addition, the cyborg initiator KAY/O. Once Episode 3 Act 2 is released, keep an eye out for the next agent, ‘Deadeye.’

Agent 18: Sprinter

  • As per a ValorLeaks thread, there isn’t much information about Agent 18. Well, except an evident name affixed to a string of code that labels them as “Sprinter”. Of course, this does not reveal the character’s official title. Nonetheless, it does provide insight into how the developers intend to tweak Valorant’s gameplay.
  • In most tactical FPS games, running is not a choice; instead, characters must hold out their close combat weapon to gain the greatest speed boost. If ‘Sprinter’ is any indication, we may have our first Agent capable of running. Akin to Overwatch’s Soldier: 76, who has the skill Sprint.

Then again, there’s no official word on Agent 18 from Riot’s press release, and what little information there is now could eventually shift by the time the new agents are released.

Possible Release Date

Whoever this Agent is, don’t assume to see much of them anytime soon because there’s still another launch to go through before they hit the game. The release date for Episode 3 Act 2 and its corresponding Agent, ‘Deadeye’ as they refer, is on the 24th of August. That signifies we won’t see Agent 18 until we get near to Episode 3 Act 3, which is expected to premiere around October 19.

Since March 2021, I've worn two hats at Spiel Times: a writer and a Managing Editor. In my writing role, I've earned recognition from Wikipedia and Nev Schulman (Catfish TV Show host) for my insightful analysis and engaging narrative style. I'm passionate about all things gaming, with a keen eye for detail and a knack for uncovering hidden secrets within games. My gaming journey began at a young age, captivated by titles like Resident Evil and Tomb Raider. Today, I enjoy exploring open-world RPGs and MMORPGs, consumed by their lore and crafting theories about their narratives. I'm also drawn to the suspenseful atmosphere of horror games and the intricate narratives of crime-themed titles, bringing a unique perspective to my writing. Beyond gaming, I have a fascination with anything unexplained and chilling, a passion that often spills over into my exploration of horror games. When I'm not engrossed in a virtual world, you can find me curled up and spending time with my adorable doggy sidekick, Teemo. As Managing Editor, I'm committed to fostering a collaborative and supportive environment for our writing team. I communicate openly with my team members, addressing any content-related issues and providing guidance to help them excel.
