Riot already announced at the release of Gekko that there will be two more agents this year. The first teasers for the 24th agent in Valorant have now surfaced.
The release of agent number 23 “Deadlock” was a few months ago now. But now we have the first information about the 24th agent of the VALORANT universe. We have all the info on the next agent.
VALORANT Agent number 24 – When can we expect him?
The developers have announced that the agent will be released before the end of 2023. An exact release date was not mentioned.
But if we go by Riot Games’ pattern, Agent will be available to us by December. Because Agents, like Harbor or Chamber were each released between mid-October to late November.
What role will the new agent take on?
In the teaser for episode 7 of VALORANT, Riot staff member John Goscicki, who is in charge of character production, announced that the new agent will be a duelist.

Teaser to agent number 24!
There are several speculations about which region the new agent will be from. On the developer blog there is a picture of a Chinese hotpot suggesting it is from China!
I figured out the twist Agent 24 is from Singapore
They’re eating at Uncle Fong’s Chongqing hotpot chain. Chongqing hotpot is very distinct but the pot looks the same as Uncle Fong’s pot. This was prolly one of the ref photos the artist used
