Valorant Indian Servers
Riot Games has said that they will be going live with the Indian Servers in Act 3. The Valorant Indian servers will be going live at the same time as the Middle East Servers, but the Indian Server will stay out in the Asia Pacific Shard. This was a commonly asked question by the Indian Gaming community and their question was answered by a developer from Riot Games on Reddit.
Valorant Act 3
Valorant Act 3 is almost here and it plans to bring a whole set of changes to the game. Here’s what the players can expect from Valorant Act 3:
New Map
- Ice Box: An abandoned Kingdom research facility in the arctic wilderness is the next location to flex your aim and abilities. Pierce the dense snow cover as an Attacker to plant the Spike. And outplay as Defender using zip lines to reach new and dangerous heights.
- The two objective sites on Icebox favor frequent skirmishes, sharp aim, and adaptive play.
Redone Competitive System
- Upgrade that Act Rank Badge with the next Competitive Act
- Rank queue lowered from 6 tiers to 3 tiers, for tighter matchmaking
- Select your preferred server and improve your ping
- Immortal+ rank outcomes are decided 100% by wins and losses
Act 3 Battle Pass
- The Battlepass returns with improvements for Act III—revamped weekly mission progress for faster unlocks and additional Epilogue tiers.
- Collect heads, rake in the XP, then snap on Act III exclusives like the “Chilly McFreeze” Gun Buddy to match the player’s arctic battles, the “Radianite Hazard” Player Card, and the Viper Spray that reminds you to wash your hands.
- Purchase the Act III Premium Battlepass to unlock more tiers of VALORANT items like the Ruin Vandal, “Disco Ball” Gun Buddy, and the Surge Bucky (with variants!).
Weapon Skin: Singularity
- Singularity exists in a far future, vast in its journey from the beyond. Powerful, abstract, and mysterious. None know where it came from or how it came to be.
- Harness its unstable force on the Phantom, Sheriff, Spectre, Ares, and Melee when you buy the Singularity bundle.
Gun Buddy: Welcome, Middle East, and North Africa
- More (low ping) challengers to the Radiant throne have arrived from the Middle East and North Africa.
- The Dallah Gun Buddy will appear in your accounts at the end of October.
New Agent: Skye
