Servers can be down for anywhere from 2-4 hours depending on the changes and content that needs to be altered. Riot are usually good with updates with very few issues occurring once they’re live.

What to expect

We know quite a lot about the new content coming in Valorant Episode 4, Act 2 already. The biggest – and most expensive – addition is the Gaia’s Vengeance skin set. This will add some magical skins with an agricultural twist.

Gaia’s Vengeance skinline are weapons born of the magical woods that grew before humankind’s reign. Possessing the power to create life or take it away, their twisted roots harness crystals from the soil to protect the forest from those that seek to bring harm.
