Valorant patch 3.01 is arriving today, i.e., July 7th. As revealed by Riot Games, the timing is going to be similar to their usual update time of 11:00 AM EST (9:30 PM IST).
Trending
The publisher drops updates for Valorant every two weeks on a Tuesday. Before today’s update, patch 3.0 featured new agent KAY/O and various in-game changes. This upcoming patch is focused on fixing minor and major issues in-game as of now.
As it is known, July 4th is a national holiday for people living in the United States, thus delaying the patch in the country. Hence, it will be released on a Wednesday rather than on Riot’s usual Tuesday schedule.
The Valorant “Rise of the Sentinels” collaboration
Riot’s FPS might be having its first collaboration project with League of Legends. Speculation was made back when the Valorant Episode 3 launch trailer came out.
In the trailer, a mysterious-looking skin, which KAY/O was holding, was teased.
The new skins might launch with League of Legends’ “Sentinels of Light” event. The ruination-themed skins are great to see and are coming to Valorant with patch 3.01 scheduled for July 7th.
Leaker Mike-Valorleak tweeted recently, showing the new skins that will be added to the game. Both Valorant and League of Legends players are excited about having this new addition to the game.
Upcoming Valorant changes that might be coming with patch 3.01
Valorant players are facing a bug related to the microphone. This bug doesn’t let them communicate in-game, so they are not happy about it.
Communication between gamers has a massive role in Valorant, so having a mic bug is a huge issue. There is a possibility this bug might get fixed with this update.
However, no statement has been made by Riot regarding agent balancings with this update. Many players feel KAY/O might be slightly overpowered, and some changes might come to this agent’s suppression ability.
Players are also speculating about a Yoru buff, something that was much needed. Yoru has been the lowest picked agent in Valorant and surely needed a considerable buff. Yoru mains are very excited about his possible buff.
Nothing can be confirmed yet, as these are all leaks, and Valorant hasn’t released any patch notes on their official site. It is yet to be seen what changes the developer team will bring along with this patch.
Valorant servers will be on maintenance to deploy the 3.01 patch. The timings for each region are as follows:
- 8:00 (8 AM) PDT, Wednesday
- 11:00 (11 AM) EST, Wednesday
- 15:00 (3 PM) GMT, Wednesday
- 20:30 (8:30 PM) IST, Wednesday
- 00:00 (midnight) JST, Thursday
The timings are speculation as no official timing list has been released on Valorant’s official website or Twitter.
