Despite having to cancel their reveal event for new shooter game, VALORANT, Riot Games has released a new playable character, VIPER, for the upcoming title. VIPER was seen in the original teaser during the League 10 event, and uses a green toxic smoke to hide and maneuver through the battlefield. 

VIPER joins a crew of other characters, like recently announced JETT and PHOENIX, but we don't know everything about them yet. So far, eight have been named, but VIPER is one of the first with gameplay teased. And according to a Polygon post, her skills are all already available to the public.

Since Riot had a large feature event planned for this week, they may have even more to release in the coming days. Stay tuned for updates, and follow our Twitter below for more VALORANT and other gaming and esports news and content.
