VALORANT players have been eagerly awaiting Killjoy’s arrival in the tactical FPS title for some time now. Riot games has leaked the agent on July 27 on their official website.
Early leaks include Agent voicelines and work-in-progress animations gave us an idea of what Killjoy will be like when they finally arrive.
Fans actually found a webpage up on Riot’s official VALORANT website named “Enter Killjoy”—the page had all of her abilities on display in video form, as well as a brief description for each. The page only had a temporary banner attached, and no images of the character were revealed.
Killjoy abilities:
Ability 1 (C) – Alarmbot
- Equip and deploy a bot that hunts down enemies who dare to get in range. When my killer robot friend reaches its target, boom goes the idiot. Alarmbot not only deals damage, it temporarily leaves affected targets vulnerable to double damage from all sources. Hold equip if you want to recall your deployed bot.
Ability 2 - Turret
- Sometimes it’s good to plant some roots. Deploy a turret that fires at enemies within its 180-degree cone. Hold equip to recall the deployed turret. With my turret, I can hold an area pretty well myself while the others cover the angles I can’t.
Signature Ability – Nanoswarm
- OK check this out. Throw the grenade. When it lands, it goes quiet. Then, activate the Nanoswarm to deploy a damaging swarm of nanobots and catch the enemy crying.I love this trick!
Ultimate Ability – Lockdown
- You’ll have to adjust your timing for the windup, but once you get this device going, it detains all enemies caught in its radius for about 8 seconds. Yeah, enemies can destroy it — except I built plenty more.
Riot has yet to confirm when Killjoy will be officially unveiled and added to VALORANT.
