VALORANT Patch 6.11 is live on the PBE server and already some players can test the changes. There are some important changes planned for the agents Viper and Chamber. Furthermore, there is already a first insight into the changes of the map Pearl.

When is VALORANT Patch 6.11 coming?

The new VALORANT patch will be released on 6 June 2023. So far, the changes are only playable on the Public Beta – Server.

Pearl is currently disabled on the PBE due to the changes.

• Recoil curve adjusted:
  • Maximum recoil is achieved with 5 instead of 6 balls
  • Total recoil is reduced to compensate

Error power

Error power is a tool that VALORANT uses to reward accuracy. This involves directing shots to the centre of the crosshairs

Centring is adjusted to be significantly reduced in all states of motion except walking or standing.

It follows that weapons are less accurate when fired in a motion, since shots are more likely to be further from the centre of the crosshairs.

VALORANT Map Changes – Pearl

Riot Games has announced that they are giving the Pearl map a bit of a makeover for the new patch. With the changes, the map should become more enjoyable for the defending team

Get ready for a slightly different looking Pearl B Site starting June 6 in Patch 6.11. Preview of the changes are dropped here:
