Riot Games has released the 2.08 patch notes which introduce Episode 2 Act 3 in Valorant. The new update will introduce a new map, Breeze, for players of Riot’s FPS game.
What’s new with VALORANT 2.08?
The new update will introduce a new tropical map, Breeze as well as a new cosmetic set. Valorant players will find a new Breeze-only queue for two weeks. After two weeks, Breeze will be a part of the Standard Unranked and competitive queue.
We’re very excited to introduce Coach slots to Tournament Mode games! This is only the beginning of our work on Coaches, and while functionality will be limited to start, we have plans to expand the capabilities available to coaches during a match. We look forward to evolving the role of coaches and working on this feature in partnership with coaches from the VCT ecosystem.
The latest update also adds Coach slots to the game. The coach slots will allow for greater strategic depth to professional games. Coaching slots will now be a part of the game’s tournament mode as well as custom games. Coaches can use all chat and party chat to communicate with tournament moderators.
