Valorant patch 6.06 official notes: Gekko changes, Lotus updates, and more

Valorant patch 6.06 will go live in some time, and the new update will introduce a number of changes to Gekko’s kit. The Agent's Moss Pit damage to objectives will be made more consistent, but it will be reduced by quite a bit.

Lotus will also get a significant number of adjustments, with VFX updates making their way to certain areas on the new map.

A significant number of bug fixes are on the cards this time around, as the Valorant developers will be fixing some of the outliers.
