Valorant New Map Fracture
Not long ago, as revealed by Riot Games’ creative director for VALORANT, David Nottingham, we might just see more of it in the next act of the game. Valorant had taken a 2-week long stretch to shift to the next act and thus giving us hindsight on chances of new maps and other items. Popular Valorant data miners ‘floxay’ and ‘Mike’ have managed to dig deep into the game files to find hints towards the next Valorant map. While the finer details are still unknown to us, the codename for the new Valorant map is expected to be ‘Canyon’, as revealed by the data miners.
Soon after, it was followed by a tweet to decode from the officials, bearing a picture of Canyon. The literal meaning of the words on the tweet reads a multitude of things in many dialects. German words, “Entzweien” meaning divide, and “Weiten”, meaning to widen or stretch.” It also contains the Latin word “Futuros“, meaning the future, and “Revelados” in Spanish, meaning revealed.
Recently, Mike from ValorLeaks also suggested the possibility of a totally new map, codenamed the “Fracture”. According to him, it is a top-secret experiment site split apart by a radianite-fueled disaster. “Flip the script on attackers with aggressive defender positioning on a new dual-biome map.”
While it might not be the case, it’s not improbable that the words somehow connect to the Valorant Lore released, amalgaming the dual world theory with a map that is present on both the worlds, thus defining the divide and widen in the tweet. Valorant leaker floxayyy confirmed that the new map would be coming to the game as part of the new Act on either the 8th/9th of September.
