Valorant's patch 2.11 is live! Just as expected, the latest update didn't bring much to the table in terms of changes. Here's a quick look at the Valorant 2.11 patch notes!
Valorant has turned a bit stale in the past few weeks as we didn't see a new patch for almost a month. This was a result of Riot's decision to entirely skip patch 2.10 and get directly into 2.11 two weeks later. This left us with 2.09 for much longer than we wanted.
In the meantime, Riot Games revealed all their big plans for Episode 3 Act 1 with the introduction of the YR1 events and rewards. The month of June is special in Valorant, as the game is celebrating its one-year anniversary. There are some big changes coming with Episode 3. Naturally, nobody expected much from the long-awaited Valorant patch 2.11 and the update didn't let us down. Here are the full notes:
Valorant Update 2.11 Official Patch Notes
Even the devs are honest about the patch:
I know, after skipping Patch 2.10 you expected fireworks. Just look at this patch as the quiet before the Episode 3 storm. Not for nothing, Patch 2.11 should improve your framerate by 1% on average if you’re on a medium-high spec machine.
The 1% FPS increase is probably the highlight for the Valorant 2.11 patch.
