With each Act, VALORANT players are treated to new content, such as new agents, new maps, and new modes. Each Act gives the new addition time to play with the community without overwhelming players with too much new content.
At the time of writing, VALORANT is in the third act of episode eight, which began on April 30.
According to VALORANT’s in-game timer, Episode Eight, Act Three will end on June 25, 2024. Given previous trends, Episode Nine, Act One should begin on the same day after Riot completes periodic server maintenance at around 8:00 a.m. CT (3:00 p.m. CEST).
