Valorant’s Patch 9.00 is dropping soon, and boy, do we have some exciting changes coming your way. New content won’t be arriving with this patch, but that doesn’t mean it never will, instead, we’ll have to wait for a bit longer.
If you’re in a region that usually gets patches on Tuesdays, then the new in-game content will hit on Wednesdays, and the store will update on Thursdays. This gives you a full day to explore the new stuff before the store tempts you with fresh goodies.
As per the revealed information by Riot Games on X, this is what it was said:
- Agents
- Maps
- Acts
- Rank Refreshes
- Battlepasses
- Skins (~2 days after patch release)
Starting with Patch 9.00, new content will be available in-game the day AFTER the patch release, with store updates coming the day after that. For example, if your region usually gets patch releases on Tuesdays, new content will arrive in-game on Wednesday and the store will…

But hey, not everything is on a delay. On the patch release day, you’ll still get balance changes to existing Agents, a new main menu background video, and updated login screen art. It’s like a teaser for all the big stuff coming the next day.
As for the console beta players, ranked mode is arriving on Wednesday, 6/26 PT. Finally, you can show off your skills and climb the ladder with the big boys.
