After a long wait, Riot Games has finally unveiled their upcoming Valorant agent Neon, and fans are more excited than ever to know more about what the new Valorant agent will bring to the table. If you’re looking to learn the agent’s kit, release date, and more, we have you covered. Here’s everything you need to know about Valorant agent 19, Neon.
Valorant Agent 19 Neon Revealed
From the initial looks at Neon in the official gameplay trailer released by Riot, it’s clear that players holding tight angles will no longer feel safe doing so once she is introduced to the live servers. Equipped with an agile skill set that enables her to isolate enemies or take over sites swiftly, she’s certain to wreak havoc both in the Attacking and Defending sides of the battlefield.
Valorant Neon Abilities
While Neon’s detailed kit hasn’t been officially revealed by Riot Games, we can extract a bunch of info from the agent’s trailer posted yesterday.
It seems like her signature skill enables her to sprint and slide across the battlefield to catch enemies off-guard. The slide can be considered to be pretty similar to Jett’s dash, which enables her to move in and out of combat at will.
Her second ability seems to be a concussion grenade that enables her to clear out narrow choke points.
From the first looks, her third ability seems to be absurdly good at entering sites. She raises up a wall similar to Phoenix, but on both sides of her, creating a narrow tunnel that can be used to safely enter or exit an area.
Neon’s ultimate allows her to shoot electricity from her fingertips, allowing her to inflict some serious damage on her opponents.
Valorant Neon Release Date
Neon is likely to join the current Valorant roster alongside the highly anticipated Episode 4 Act 1 update that’s scheduled to release on January 10, 2022.
