Riot Games has announced Neon – the next agent to join Valorant – as well as details on what fans can expect from the Episode 4, Act 1 Battlepass.
According to a press release from Riot Games, Neon is from the Philippines and “surges forward at shocking speeds, discharging bursts of bioelectric radiance as fast as her body generates it”.
Neon’s entire theme is about moving quickly – her E ability, High Gear, lets Neon run much faster and can be used to trigger an electric slide. Her Q ability, Relay Bolt, throws a bouncing bolt of energy that electrifies the ground with a concussive blast. Neon’s C ability is called Fast Lane and raises walls of static electricity that damage and block the vision of enemies passing through them. Finally, her Overdrive ability fires a beam of lightning “with high movement accuracy” and has a duration that resets on each kill.
On the development team’s goals for Neon, Ryan “rycou” Cousart said her kit revolved around feeling “fast” and “frenetic”. Cousart added that as a Filipino designer, it was an “absolute blessing” to create a Filipina agent.
Riot Games has also shared details on what will be included in the Episode 4, Act 1 Battlepass. The free items in the Battlepass include the following:
- Velocity Shorty w/ Variants
- Operation: Fracture Player Card
