Valorant New "Deadeye" Agent Teased

The developers teased the next agent, reportedly called 'Deadeye.' in the Year One Anthem video. Since then, the entire Valorant community has been waiting for Riot to learn anything about the agent.

Well, you'd be delighted to know that the developers finally revealed new information about "Deadeye" in September 2021's State of The Agents. Sadly, we still don't know if the "Deadeye" name for the agent is official or not. But fortunately, it's now confirmed that the eighteenth agent is a Sentinel. So, after a long wait, we'll finally get a fourth Sentinel in the game.

Besides confirming the class, the devs revealed that the new agent will focus on "mechanical outplays." Also, there will be an additional focus on gunplay, which clarifies why Deadeye was shown holding a massive gun in the first teaser.

Talking about the teaser, Riot also revealed a new image to tease the upcoming agent; here you go:
