Valorant 6.08 patch notes including map changes, minor visual upgrades, some bug fixes and more have been shared on the PBE server.

Valorant 6.08 Patch Notes

The highly acclaimed tactical shooter Valorant from Riot recently welcomed Gekko as a new agent. That hasn't stopped Riot, though, from implementing a few fresh updates that will both enhance gameplay and address a few annoying problems.

Valorant Patch 6.07 made a few major adjustments to Bind, which resulted in a slight change to its overall gameplay. With the upcoming patch, Riot intends to enhance the gameplay further.

One of the most powerful sentinel agents in the game will undergo some big alterations as a result of this Valorant 6.08 patch, but a few other agents will also receive small upgrades.

The Valorant 6.08 patch notes have been made public by Riot Games on the PBE serves. Unfortunately, the PBE has not seen any significant alterations other than Bind's addition and a few Agent updates.

Let's directly dwell on the details.

Valorant 6.08 PBE, a recent update from the developer that makes numerous modifications to the game, has just been made available.

Riot Games is finally reintroducing Bind to the game in each playlist with Patch 6.08. Players are content with the OG map's comeback, despite Icebox having to wait for a while.

Additionally, Gekko's Wingman will receive some minor audio tweaks as part of the Valorant 6.08 patch. Players can now more clearly hear the Wingman's audio cue as it plants or defuses the spike. Killjoy's kits will also undergo various adjustments in addition to the new Agent.

The Valorant update 6.08 PBE patch notes are listed below.

Valorant 6.08 Patch - MAP UPDATES

The newly updated Bind rotates into Competitive and Unrated queues.
Icebox rotates out of Competitive and Unrated queues.

Recently, Riot Games revealed that Episode 6 Act III will mark Bind's long-awaited return to the game. This inevitably meant that one of the already live maps would be dropped, and it has now been made public that the map being dropped is none other than Icebox.

With the release of Valorant patch 6.08, Icebox will no longer be a part of the game's Competitive or Unrated queue map rotation, and Bind will take his place.

However, with the release of the Valorant 6.08 patch, Riot will release the map together with all of its upgrades for all other modes, including Deathmatch and Swiftplay, in order to get players ready for all the new Bind map improvements.

Despite the map's reintroduction to the game, Riot Games will give it a significant facelift so that players can have a unique Bind. Here are the main changes made to Bind:

The exit for the teleporter connecting B Long to A Lobby is now directly next to the entrance to A Bath (aka Showers).
The triple box on A site has been significantly altered.
A vent opening in the wall between the B site and B Elbow has been added.
