The Valorant community has mourned the loss of Widejoy, the bugged player card that saw the German Agent basically show up in every lobby with a broken aspect ratio.<\/p>\n

Since patch 4.0, Riot Games removed the Widejoy card by simply fixing the Rainfall Killjoy player card, putting an end to the beloved meme cosmetic.<\/p>\n

Fans have petitioned the tactical shooter developers to bring the player card in some shape or form and Riot has delivered on 1st April.. in a way.<\/p>\n

Riot surprises fans with Widejoy “comeback”<\/h2>\n

Those aware of the date immediately avoided being fooled by Riot after the devs posted a trailer on social media teasing the return of Widejoy and a limited-time mode to celebrate the occasion.<\/p>\n

If you’re outside the United States, April Fool’s day is one of those annoying dates on which misinformation is spread more so than usual, as it’s used to pull pranks to varying degrees of success.<\/p>\n

Riot’s trailer and their ability to embrace community memes made sure plenty of people fell for the joke. Some choose to believe it’s true purely out of a passion for the beloved Widejoy card.<\/p>\n
