All Valorant Episodes and Acts (July 2025)

Valorant is one of the most popular games right now, with it having over 15 million monthly players. However, if the game was to stay the same, then the player count would have dropped a long time ago due to burnout and boredom.

That's where Valorant acts come in. An act is essentially a competitive timeframe where, when an act ends, the battle pass gets reset and a new agent or map is released with the following act (most of the time). Three acts make up an episode and are all of around two months each, meaning an episode lasts for around six months.

We've compiled a list of every Valorant episode and act at the time of writing, so that you can take a trip down memory lane whenever you want.

Current Valorant Episode

Now that we’ve gone through all the previous episodes and their acts, let’s take a look at what’s happening in Valorant right now.

At the time of writing, the game is in Episode 10, with the currently active phase being Season 2025, Act 4. This act launched on June 25, 2025, and is expected to run until August 20, 2025, though Riot has yet to confirm the exact end date. It continues the seasonal content structure Riot introduced during Episode 8, where each season lines up with a new act inside an ongoing episode.

Like most previous episodes, Episode 10 also follows a multi-act format and continues expanding the game with new content. Season 2025, Act 4 brought with it a brand-new map called Corrode, which instantly joined the competitive rotation. Set in a medieval-industrial environment, Corrode is the first map in Valorant to feature breakable floor panels and water hazards, which has completely shaken up how agents interact with the environment. The best agents on Corrode tend to be those with strong mobility and recon tools, making characters like Omen, Chamber, and Sova more valuable than usual.

While no new agent has been introduced in this act, Riot did push out several major balance updates across the roster. Champions such as Sova, Reyna, Neon, Phoenix, Killjoy, Waylay, and Omen received buffs, nerfs, or ability tweaks aimed at improving balance across competitive play.
