Based on the leak, Agent 26 will be an Initiator. That means the upcoming Valo Agent will focus on crowd control and setting up fights in defense and helping the Duelists facilitate site entry while attacking a spike site. Similar to other Initiators, Agent 26 will likely get a certain piece of utility that will reveal or flash their opponents. However, the developers have yet to post anything officially regarding the abilities.

Hence, it’ll be interesting to see what the developers will bring to the table for the fans on August 25, 2024. Judging from the Valorant’s Episode 9 Act 1 Battlepass, Agent 26 could have abilities somehow related to time.

That sums up everything we know regarding Valorant's newest Agent 26 so far.
