How many Agents are in Valorant
Since its inception in 2020, Valorant has kept adding Agents to its initial roster with the goal of enriching gameplay possibilities.
As of the latest release of Clove, there are 24 Agents in Valorant, each bringing unique abilities to the game.
With a diverse array of Agents available in the game separated into 4 class types, players are presented with a strategic choice that determines their in-game playstyle.
Duelists
Phoenix
Hailing from the UK, this Duelist is known for aggressive and flashy playstyle because of his power to control the battlefield with fiery abilities.
Most recognizable by his ultimate “Run it Back” that lets him cheat death and make offensive plays, Phoenix is one of the most beloved Agents in Valorant’s roster.
Jett
When it comes to outplaying opponents by dashing and slashing through sites and areas, none do it better than Jett because of her Q and E.

Reyna
When you think of heavy fraggers in Valorant, you think of Reyna players.
This Duelist Agent embodies an aggressive, heads-on playstyle enabled by her siphoning abilities that constantly heal while in combat.
Her ult presents an additional layer of firepower as it boosts Reyna’s offensive combat stats which extends on kill, making Reyna a premium pick for Valorant smurfs.
Neon
If zapping enemies while zooming at uncontrollable speeds sounds like your cup of tea, you’re going to love the Filipino Duelist Neon who embraces fast-paced duelling.
Her signature “High Gear” combined with her ultimate “Overdrive”, allows Neon to rush enemies while equipped with an accurate lightning beam that inflicts deadly damage upon impact.
Yoru
Deception is Yoru’s middle name, as this Japanese duelist’s kit revolves around creating advantageous situations through surprise attack and flanks, while having decent utility in the form of his flash grenade on Q.
By deploying clones, becoming invisible and teleporting, he creates chaos and uncertainty on the field, making Yoru a constant threat on the battlefield.
Raze
Never bring a knife to a gunfight, especially if Raze is your enemy since not even a regular gun is sufficient in most cases due to her abundance of firepower.
This duelist embodies raw demolition as Raze is equipped with several explosion-based abilities, most notably her ultimate which literally replaces her weapon with a massive bazooka.
Iso
Best known for his swaggy appearance and visually appealing abilities, Iso is certainly one of the most fun Duelists to play in the game.
His ultimate is an absolute blast to use as it teleports both Iso and a single opponent to an isolated interdimensional arena where only one Agent leaves alive.
Controllers
Brimstone

For this reason, Omen is a very disruptive force on the battlefield because of his elusive and shadowy tactics mixed with utility that stems from his shadow orbs and projectiles.
Harbor
Harbor is a coastal Agent that wields ancient technology allowing him full control over water, allowing him to use aquatic power to shield allies and disrupt opponents.
He easily gains control over sites with the use of his “High Tide” and Cascade that continuously slow enemies while his ult “Reckoning” summons damaging geysers that concuss enemies hit.
Clove
Clove is one of the most unconventional Controllers in the game, sharing more resemblances with Duelists than other Agents in the Controller class.
This is because of their ultimate that allows them to be the first person who engages in a fight.
However, this doesn’t mean that Clove isn’t equipped with utility though, as they boast smoke grenades that can even be used after they’ve died in a round.
Initiators
Breach
Breach is a powerful Valorant Initiator that relies on his seismic shockwaves to disrupt and damage opponents.
Blending precision and strength, Breach’s kit revolves around wrecking chaos and disarraying enemies by inflicting debuffs such as daze and blind.

She can also easily acquire intel on opponents by using her “Haunt” which reveals enemy Agents and ult that creates a trail to enemies while also deafening and decaying them.

Next New Agent
Agent 8
In Valorant, every Agent has an ID number that corresponds to the order in which they’ve joined.
In the current development of Valorant, Riot has decided to keep Agent 8 a secret, with only a few speculative hints from AMAs and cinematics.
These speculations suggest that the Agent 8 is not dead and is currently away at an undisclosed location.
For this reason, it’s safe to assume that Riot is planning to integrate the Agent 8 into the game at some point in the future.
