Valorant leaks showcased the next agent likely to join Riot's character-based tactical FPS. Named Yoru, the new character's skill set revolves around stealthy abilities. Russian YouTube channel БАЧОК shared what looks to be a legitimate demonstration of Yoru's kit.

Reddit user kuroi_kaze_ translated the video's ability descriptions to provide more info. Yoru's X creates step sounds to throw off enemies and can also pre-place the fake footsteps. His X blinds enemies by throwing a flash that will pop after hitting a surface. Yoru's C places down teleports, and his ultimate ability turns him invisible and invulnerable for a limited time.

Valorant's Episode Two, Act One will arrive soon, and leaked previews of Valorant's next battlepass and new menu--courtesy of the same YouTube channel БАЧОК--are out on the internet. From a quick glance, it looks like you can get some pretty nice skins for the Phantom and Valorant weapons. You can check out the video above.

Valorant's current Act will end January 12, and we should be seeing the new battlepass soon. While the leaks look quite legitimate, the released Yoru build and battlepass content can differ, so keep that in mind.
