The Scottish troublemaker, Clove, has joined the fray, and hot on their heels comes Valorant Patch 8.07! This patch focuses on tackling much-need bug fixes and grants a significant buff for a beloved Controller.

This patch brings a game-changer for Omen. He can now interact with the spike, doors, and other objects while in his ultimate form (From the Shadows) without cancelling the ability. This opens the door for more creative plays and could have a significant impact on the Controller meta!

Valorant Patch 8.07 expected release date

The release date for Patch 8.07 has yet to be announced! Riot Games typically takes an extra week after Public Beta Environment (PBE) testing to gather player feedback and implement any necessary changes. Based on this pattern, we can expect Patch 8.07 to launch around Tuesday, 16 April 2024.
