Valorant
Valorant is a tactical hero shooter developed and published by Riot Games for Windows and is free to play. The game was initially teased under the codename Project A in October 2019 and entered a closed beta period with limited access on April 7, 2020, before being released on June 2, 2020. The game's development began in 2014, and it draws inspiration from the Counter-Strike series of tactical shooters, incorporating mechanics such as the buy menu, spray patterns, and inaccuracy while moving. Set in the near future, Valorant is a team-based first-person shooter in which players take on the role of one of a variety of Agents, each of which is based on different countries and cultures from around the world.
Valorant Update 6.03 Patch Notes
AGENT UPDATES
KILLJOY
With Chamber’s recent balance and the increased reliability of Killjoy’s Lockdown ult, she has recently sprung up as the premier Sentinel Agent in the game. When we took on systemic damage and health interactions in Patch 5.12, we decided not to reduce Killjoy’s Turret health given her place in the ecosystem at the time. Given her place today, we are making the changes below.
RAZE
We feel the duration of Boom Bot has led to a larger recon footprint than we felt was healthy, in regards to the ability’s secondary output. We are decreasing the amount of space the ability can cover in order to sharpen Boom Bot as a tool Raze and her team can use to follow up around angles.

When Is The Next Valorant Night Market In 2023?
In February 2023, one of the most highly anticipated events in Valorant is the return of the Valorant Night Market, where players can snag their favorite gun skins at discounted prices. Riot Games has confirmed that the Night Market will be back this month, stating that "When the sun goes down, deals come to light. About time for a Night. Market." The market is set to launch on February 15, 2023, and will become accessible to clients on February 16, 2023, at 1 am UTC or 6:30 am IST. Players are advised to have enough VP to purchase their desired skins. The Night Market will only be available for 12 days this time, in contrast to the extended stay of last month's market.
Valorant Night Market Tracker
The Valorant Night Market is a shop that appears randomly during each Act, offering six different gun skins at discounted prices. The skins are selected at random, and it's worth noting that the selection is entirely randomized. After receiving negative feedback about the initial version of the Night Market in December 2020, Riot Games implemented a "Bad Luck Protection" feature to ensure players don't leave empty-handed. If players don't own every Premium Edition skin, they are guaranteed to receive at least two of these skins in their pool. In addition, players will no longer receive two skins for the same weapon to provide more variety.
When To Get Valorant Night Market?
When the Night Market is available in Valorant, players can access it by clicking on a little card logo that sparkles in the top right-hand corner of the game's opening screen. The discounted gun skins are displayed on cards, which can be flipped over to reveal the skin on offer and the percentage discount. The background color of the card and the shape in the bottom right-hand corner indicate the tier of the skin. Players can refer to the Valorant skin guide to learn more about skin tiers.
