Announcing Episode 7 of Valorant with progression changes, team deathmatch and more

Riot Games has officially announced the Episode 7 content update for Valorant that will be released later this month and is one of the biggest updates the game has received to date. This episode introduces a new currency, Kingdom Credits, and features improved daily rewards, special events for unlocking agents, an accessory shop, and much more. There’s a lot to take apart, so here’s a quick rundown of everything that’s been officially announced for Valorant Episode VII.

What’s in the Valorant Episode 7 Content Update?

New progression system

The new Dailies system will allow players to progress through all of the modes that VALORANT has to offer except Deathmatch. You won’t have to log into the game every day, so when the new Dailies system drops in Valorant Episode 7, you can play whenever you want and rely on the game’s catch-up mechanic to help you earn any rewards you might miss out on. This is a great move because it removes the FOMO (fear of missing out) element that is common to a lot of other live service titles.

death team

The latest game mode added to Valorant is Team Deathmatch, where you and your teammates clash with the enemy team in one of three new maps. There are four timed stages and no economy rounds. The respawn timer is only 1.5 seconds and the first team to reach 100 kills wins the match. The game mode will also feature three custom maps designed specifically for Team Deathmatch.

gear proxies

These are free event passes that automatically activate the day a new agent is issued and remain active for 28 days. Unlocking agents takes about the same amount of time as before, but you earn kingdom credits in the process, too.

Kingdom Credits is a new currency that allows you to unlock associated Agent Contract rewards or you can unlock Battle Pass accessories from previous seasons. To help players get used to the new system, Riot Games will be offering all players 5,000 Kingdom Credits when the update goes live.

In addition to all the new content, players can also expect a brand new battle pass with awesome new cosmetics to unlock.

The release date of the seventh episode of the Valorant series

The new Valorant Episode 7 update (patch 7.0) will be released on June 27th.
