Vyse is the newest Sentinel Agent in VALORANT, revealed near the tail end of VALORANT Champions 2024 in Seoul, South Korea.
The teasers and leaks have piled in for Vyse, the newest Agent to VALORANT. The Sentinel's reveal is not during the Grand Final of Champions like Riot has done in the past, but instead on the first day of the arena stage.
This new Agent has every talking, and we're going to take a look at what she's all about. From her design and abilities to the reveal and when you can play her, here's what we know about Vyse.
How to watch the official first look at the newest VALORANT Agent
If you want to see the first official reveal of VALORANT's latest Agent, named Vyse, you can check it out on the official VALORANT Twitch channel. On August 23, 2024 during the first day of the Champions 2024 arena stage, the Agent will be shown off.
Watch along with us in the embedded stream. Until then, we can take a look at some teasers. Since the inclusion of the Abyss map, we've seen glimpses of who or what Vyse is. She broke out of containment there and further teasers have indicated she uses vines and thorns to entrap her enemies.

Vyse VALORANT Agent abilities
We do not officially know the new VALORANT Agent's abilities, but as a Sentinel, Vyse is sure to lockdown sites and other locations of the map. As well, a teaser may have indicated what kind of abilities we'll find once they're released.
We can make assumptions based on what we see in this teaser. An orb turns into a flower with vines and thorns, potentially indicating a throwable trap. Next is an hour glass with vines crushing it, that could indicate a slow field of sorts. And lastly is vines wrapping around a Vandal, potentially restricting weapon usage for a time?
We'll update you here with the official abilities when they're known.
When does Vyse release in VALORANT?
