Valorant New Agent: Everything We Know So Far
By Andrew Lin
Valorant's new agent was teased in a blog post announcing the game's launch.
An official announcement by Anna Donlon and Joe Ziegler for the full launch of Valorant was posted on the game's blog. Along with the reveal of a June 2 release for most regions, the bottom of the announcement showed off the current Agent line up.
All the way at the end stands Sage, but who's that next to her? A previously unrevealed Agent's foot makes its way into the shot.

This is seems too easy of an error to make, and most likely this is a deliberate teaser for a new Agent. Some players have suggested that the new Agent is Sabine, who is referenced in some voice lines.

Sabine has been mentioned by the other Agents to have vampiric abilities. It's unknown if the foot in the Agent line up up belongs to Sabine, but if we look at other Hero shooters like Overwatch it won't be a far stretch to correlate the two.
The closed beta is set to conclude on May 28, with no plans for additional patches until launch. We could expect to see more information about this mysterious new Agent after the game officially releases on June 2.
