Riot Games’ VALORANT has revealed a vampiric new Agent, Reyna, ahead of its June 2nd worldwide release.
According to VALORANT’s 30-second showcase video, Reyna hails from Mexico and appears to be a bit of a vamp. Although the video doesn’t explicitly outline her abilities, her voice lines offer some insight into what her skills do. Her free ability has her cry “Give me your heart!” after killing an enemy, then making a clawing motion. She seems to be able to draw power from defeated opponents to heal or empower herself, but to what extent isn’t apparent in the video.
The video also shows Reyna throwing shadowy orbs that can pass through walls. From her “see nothing” voice line when she activates the skill, it can be assumed that the orbs blind enemies or otherwise obscures her from their view. Reyna’s ultimate is called Empress, but the brief gameplay video doesn’t show her activating it.
In addition to introducing Reyna, the video also gives a sneak peek at what seems to be a new map. Sharp-eyed players may notice that the map’s assets resemble the training level, and some are already speculating that the new area is the one that could be glimpsed through the training level’s rift in the sky. However, as VALORANT video doesn’t show much of the map’s layout, this is currently still conjecture.
Reyna will presumably be available when VALORANT officially launches June 2nd.
