Launch was the start of Episode I, where in Act I, you got Reyna, Ascent, Elderflame and the VALORANT Battlepass—a way for us to reward you for the time you give VALORANT with unique items that personalize your gameplay.
You get a fresh Battlepass to grind, the arrival of defensive wizard Killjoy, the Glitchpop weapon skin line, and more—detailed for you below in this guide to all things VALORANT Act II.
