Riot Games has unveiled the latest Valorant<\/a> map that will replace Split in the competitive and unrated queues when Episode 5 starts: Pearl. Featuring an underwater city that accentuates Valorant’s mixture of avant-garde tech with more of a quaint design, Pearl is inspired by Portuguese architecture.<\/p>\n

The addition of Pearl will break a streak of nine months without a new Valorant map. The last one to be added, Fracture, debuted back in September, with a massive content drought in the middle due to Riot Games shifting focus to balancing available content rather than keep adding more.<\/p>\n

This new underwater city was revealed on a special Valorant stream on 16th June and as we mentioned, it will come alongside the new map rotation system to avoid clogging the map pool with the addition of a new one. Let’s break down everything you need to know about Pearl.<\/p>\n

The newest Valorant map, Pearl, will join the tactical shooter when Episode 5 Act 1 starts this upcoming 22nd June.<\/p>\n

Pearl will replace Split in the newly announced rotation system that will apply to unrated and competitive queues. However, before Pearl joins both queues, there will be a special playlist dedicated to the map so players can familiarize themselves with it, which will be available for two weeks.<\/p>\n
