Everything in Valorant Season 2025 Act 3

Everything in Valorant Season 2025 Act 3

Being one of the most popular esports games despite its relatively recent release, Valorant [1] has a lot to live up to and a lot of fans who won’t let Riot Games forget if the company did anything stupid. Thanks to this, it’s crucial for the game to continue getting new additions with steady patches and updates.

With Valorant Season 2025 Act 3 out, fans have a lot to look forward to. In particular, the new update brought players a brand new battle pass, a new gifting system that finally lets players gift skins and bundles to their friends, a revamped competitive map pool for the more serious players, and the Divergence bundle for those wanting to personalize their favorite weapons.

So, without further ado, here’s everything Valorant Season 2025 Act 3 added to the game.

Valorant Season 2025 Act 3 agent changes

As with every major update, Valorant Season 2025 Act 3 also brought with it a handful of agent tweaks. Below are all of them:

What is new in the Season 2025 Act 3 battle pass?

Valorant’s Season 2025 Act 3 starts with a fresh battle pass about celebrating the game’s fifth anniversary. Firstly, the pass comes with three unique skin lines. Solarex has a sleek, sci-fi gold-and-purple design that could be called the budget Prime line. Spellbound leans into a mystical aesthetic with dark silver tones, while Tacti-Treat is a candy-colored set full of vibrant colors. 

The Solarex Relic Melee is a standout, feeling like a top-tier knife despite being a pass reward, and the Jumping Peel Jett and Balikbayan Box animated sprays add personality to each match. Since this Act also celebrates Valorant’s fifth anniversary, there are themed goodies like the 5th title, V25 Act 3 Coin gun buddy, and a few nostalgic player cards that call back some of the game’s most iconic moments.

There are still some fun rewards you can unlock for free if you can’t afford to buy the pass. The RIP Cypher and My Leg sprays are meme-worthy picks, alongside the Killer Frog and Beta Key buddies, which are full of character. There is something for everyone, even if you are not grinding the pass.

How does the new gifting system in Valorant work?

Beyond cosmetics, the new patch introduces us to the gifting feature Riot had been teasing for months. This lets you send skins, sprays, and other cool cosmetics directly to friends, who get to keep them permanently. You can choose featured store bundles (or parts of them) for friends from the in-game store. It makes gifting smooth, simple, and much more secure than buying third-party VP codes.

To send a gift, head to the Store tab, pick a bundle or time from the Featured section, select the Gift option, and pick the friend from your list. They will get a notification with the option to accept or reject the gift. What's great is that you will be fully refunded the VP amount if they decline or fail to do either for 60 days.



Of course, there are a few rules to this. You and your friend must be on each other's friends lists for at least a week, both of you must be unbanned, and your account should be at least level 15. You are also limited to 5 gifts daily, and only players on the same game shard (NA, EU, AP, etc) can trade gifts. Some specific countries, like the Philippines, Turkey, or Russia, have extra region-based restrictions too.

Currently, the system is limited to items from the Featured Store Bundles, which typically contain weapon skins, sprays, player cards, etc. What is good, however, is that if your friend already owns part of the bundle, the system automatically adjusts the price to pay for what they do not have. And while you can not gift the battle pass yet, Riot has confirmed they plan to expand the feature.

Replay system confirmed for Valorant

The gifting system is cool, but it isn’t the only news players got. The game is also confirmed to be getting a replay system for players who want to ensure the person who killed them with a one-tap wasn’t actually cheating.

What does the new Valorant map pool look like?

The new update also revamps the map lineup in Season 2025 Act 3. This time, Fracture, which was getting a polarizing response from the community, is being removed. Sunset is taking its place, bringing back its demanding gameplay. This swap will feel refreshing for teams relying on strong mid-control and strategic plays. With this change, the new pool includes Ascent, Haven, Icebox, Lotus, Pearl, Split, and Sunset. It is a balanced lineup with a mix of classic picks and more challenging layouts.

And that is not all, as Riot added a surprise during the Season 2025 Act 3 trailer. Around 25 seconds in, you can spot Phoenix and Astra pushing through what looks like a brand-new map. It is not official whether this new map will be competitive-ready or just for casual modes, but a big reveal would not be off the books with Valorant’s 5th anniversary coming up.

What is inside the new Valorant Divergence bundle?

Apart from cool new rewards and reworked map rotations, the update also brings the Valorant Divergence bundle for all skin collectors. It includes sleek skins for five weapons: the Vandal, Operator, Classic, Judge, and a special Melee skin. The designs are futuristic and stylish, making this bundle one to look out for.

It does not stop at weapon skins, as it also comes with a player card, a flex, a spray, and two gun buddies to add even more personality to your collection. If you can't buy the whole bundle, you can grab individual skins priced at 2,175 VP each. The Melee skin is a premium item, costing more at 4,350 VP. While the whole bundle will go for 7,100 VP, it's nice that Riot gives the option to pick and choose.

What are the major updates in Valorant Season 2025 Act 3?

Valorant Season 2025 Act 3, launched with Patch 10.08, introduces several significant updates. Notably, the long-awaited gifting feature allows players to send select Featured Store bundles and items directly to friends. Additionally, the map rotation has changed: Fracture has been removed from Competitive and Deathmatch queues, while Sunset has been reintroduced. 

Agent adjustments include nerfs to Yoru's ultimate ability, Dimensional Drift, reducing its duration from 12 to 10 seconds and increasing its point cost from 7 to 8, as well as a reduction in Astra's Nova Pulse stun duration from 4 seconds to 3.5 seconds.
