Other Map Changes
New map aside, another source of excitement for Valorant players is the changes in the map rotation. Major changes have been made, these changes will also take effect after the Valorant Champions Final. The new rotation of the maps will exclude Fracture and Pearl and will include the new map “Sunset” and the good old map “Breeze”. As for “Icebox”, the map will not be included in the rotation. Players will have to wait for some time for its return. Furthermore, Breeze will be returning to the map roster with some major changes made to it. Here’s a video by Kanga – Valorant regarding the changes:

I wonder how many agents Riot actually has planned for the next two years. They keep pumping up new content (hit or miss, sure).
