Valorant announces new map Icebox for Act 3

Get ready to experience Icebox from the start of Act 3 of Valorant. The map seems to be in a cold region and gives pride of place to verticality.

Valorant announces new map Icebox for Act 3

Valorant has introduced the 5th map to join the game. After Split, Haven, Bind and Ascent, you'll soon be able to play on Icebox. The map is briefly shown in a clip posted on social networks.

From what we can glean from the clip :

  • The middle of the map seems to be a large no man's land stuck between two rows of containers — probably a privileged position for snipers.
  • Verticality seems to be strongly present, with several multi-storey buildings and a zipline shown in the clip.
  • Several narrow passages favoring close quarters are visible, but it's difficult to place them on the map.

While the exact date of the launch of Act 3 isn't yet known, we do know that the battle pass of Act 2 will end on October 14. You still have about 15 days to wait before you can walk on the floor of Icebox.

The video is being encoded, please update the page in a few moments.
