The release of Valorant Episode 7 Act 2 is just around the corner. That means there will be a brand new Battlepass for players to grind as soon as the Act begins. This time, Riot Games has chosen a Los Angeles-themed pass to celebrate the city that hosted Champions 2023. The new map, Sunset, arriving at the start of Act 2, is also based on the American city.
While the prospect of a new map is the biggest reason to hype up the release of Valorant Episode 7 Act 2, the new LA-themed Battlepass is nothing to shrug off. Consisting of charming weapon skins, funny stickers, and wonderful player cards, this Battlepass delivers on all fronts. Here is everything you can expect from the upcoming Battlepass.
When does Valorant Episode 7 Act 2 Battlepass come out?
The Episode 7 Act 2 Battlepass will be available after the patch is deployed on August 29, 2023. There is always a 2-4 hour scheduled maintenance before a new patch is deployed. Since the upcoming Act will have a new map, Sunset, you can expect the maintenance time to be on the long side.
Servers will go offline at different times in different parts of the world. Here are the specific times for the different regions of the world:
