Now that patch 11.07 has arrived, Season 2025 Act 6 is next in the calendar for Valorant players. The new Act is expected to drop more content than the normal updates, and some teasers/leaks have already indicated what we can expect this time.
From a brand-new agent to even a new mode, here is everything we know about Act 6 while we wait for more announcements from Riot.
When does Valorant Season 2025 Act 6 start?
Season 2025 Act 6 of Valorant is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, October 15, after patch 11.08 rolls out across the different regions.
Even though some of the new content will go live as soon as the patch is out, the new Act and its battle pass will be available until that day at around 6:00 AM PT (3:00 PM BST). The new Act is expected to last around eight weeks, just like the previous ones from this year.
New agent: Veto
A new agent, reportedly called Veto, is coming to the game with this new Act. The following image has been circulating on social media, giving us an idea of how the agent's shape will be in the game.
Apart from that, other details about their role and abilities have already leaked. We recommend that you visit this article, as we will be gathering all the rumors and confirmed information there.
New mode: Skirmish
As discovered by dataminers, patch 11.07 added the files for a new game mode called Skirmish. The official description in the files says the following: "Practice your gunplay in a solo duel or in teams. No spike, just kills, first team to win 10 rounds wins."
This appears to be a basic Team Deathmatch mode played in rounds. Dataminers also found that three Skirmish maps have been added to the game, and you can see the minmap for each one of them in the following post from X:
A loading screen for this mode was also found in the files, as you can see below, and it gives us a look at one of the maps.
Other details
Here are other minor details we can list about the new Act, so you dont miss out on anything coming to the shooter:
- A new battle pass filled with new cosmetics will go live once patch 11.08 rolls out in all regions.
- We can expect a new bundle to drop in the store two days after patch 11.08 rolls out in each region.
