Valorant patch 5.05 sees many social updates along with minor gameplay fixes.
Amongst the hype that is VCT Champions 2022, the engineers at Riot Games are still hard at work polishing Valorant. While it would not be the smartest decision to make significant changes to the game during Valorants biggest tournament of the year, there is still work that needs to be done.
