New agents in Valorant are always big news. We just recently got more info on the new agent KAY/O and the patch notes for Episode 3 Act 1 were leaked.

Who is the new Valorant agent Deadeye?

According to our buddy ValorLeaks on Twitter, the new Valorant agent listens to the working title Deadeye and could become a duelist. And honestly, he kind of reminds us of Midas from Fortnite. Here is the leak with some fancy pictures of Deadeye:

Another thing that stands out in the pictures is the weapon that Deadeye is holding. We don’t know of any weapon that looks like that at the moment – so it could well be that we get a new weapon with Deadeye. Or maybe the weapon is connected to one of Deadeye’s abilities….

Riot promised in the past to release up to 6 agents per year and so far there was Astra and KAY/O in 2021. So another agent for the next act would definitely fit the schedule. So far, however, Riot has not commented on Valorant’s new agent Deadeye.

When is the Valorant Agent Deadeye release date?

So far nothing else is known about Agent Deadeye, but a release with Episode 3 Act 2 would be quite conceivable. As soon as we know more about Valorant’s new Agent Deadeye, we will of course keep you updated.
