The Valorant 8.0 patch notes have finally been revealed. This is the first patch of Episode 8 Act 1, and it brings some massive changes. Deadlock was the biggest beneficiary of these changes, and it seems the Sentinel agent is finally back to being a viable pick.
This patch also introduced the map changes to Lotus and Icebox, which had already been leaked a few days ago but were now officially confirmed. Valorant Premiers is also receiving some new content, while the anticipated Outlaw Sniper is making its way to the game.
Without further ado, let's dive into the Valorant 8.0 patch.
Valorant patch 8.0 highlights
As mentioned above, Deadlock received some huge buffs. Deadlock Sonic Sensor activation time was drastically decreased, and now her Sonic Sensors are also recallable in the middle of a round.
Furthermore, Deadlock Barrier Mesh now covers a much bigger area, as its max length was increased to 10 meters. This allows her to block pretty much every entrance in all the Valorant maps and gives her a bigger defensive presence.
