Valorant players only have a limited amount of time to unlock Deadlock before her Recruitment Event ends.

Valorant Episode 7 Act 1 introduced Deadlock as the next Agent in Riot Games' FPS. The Sentinel's defensive abilities pair well with fast Duelists, and her ultimate is a surefire way to win any 1v1. Deadlock can even trap enemies in her Barrier Mesh mid-round to hinder fast attacks.

The update also brought a new progression system to Valorant that adjusted the way players can unlock Agents. Agent Contracts are now called Agent Recruitment Events, and players have multiple options of recruiting new faces, like Deadlock, within a certain period of time.

Valorant Deadlock Recruitment Event End Date

The Valorant Deadlock Recruitment Event ends on July 25, 2023. Players will have just under a month to earn 200,000 XP and unlock Deadlock for free. Those who wish to play Deadlock right away can purchase the Agent for 1,000 VP.

If you fail to collect 200,000 XP by July 25, then you can spend 8,000 Kingdom Credits to unlock the Agent even after the Recruitment Event concludes. Kingdom Credits are a new free in-game currency awarded to players as they play any game mode.

Unlocking an Agent through their Recruitment Event takes about the same time as it took to finish Level 5 of an Agent Contract, so plan your schedule accordingly.
