Valorant Patch 6.08 relaunches the community’s beloved map with a fresh look

Read all the major highlights of Valorant Patch 6.08!

With the launch of Valorant Patch 6.08 tonight, the valorant community member will be finally reuniting with their beloved map — Bind — in a new, revised Avatar. The map was unavailable from the Unrated and Competitive queue list for more than a year due to the mandatory map rotation; during this time, the developers made several changes to some areas of the map that felt a little buggy and boring to the Esports scene. Along with the launch of Bind, the developers have also provided a balance to the powerful Sentinel agent — KillJoy.
