New changes are in abundance within the latest set of VALORANT patch notes, as update 8.01 is set to switch up how you play Breeze, alongside a handful of new updates to your favourite Agents.
There’s always something to adjust in the game, as with so many moving parts it’s expected for something to become a little unbalanced. Whether it be one Agent that’s a little too powerful, or an aspect of a map that just isn’t working, you’ll always find something’s been tweaked when the next VALORANT patch rolls around.
