Just a few days after making its surprise debut on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, Valorant has been given a big new update by Riot Games. Valorant update 9.03 is out now for PlayStation, Xbox and PC. The new update makes a wealth of improvements, bug fixes and gameplay tweaks, including improvements to Ground Spreading Abilities, such as Brimstone’s Incendiary and Viper’s Snakebite. According to Riot Games, the aforementioned abilities will now spread more consistently and only apply damage in places that are consistent with the visuals.

Speaking of consistency, Riot has also made improvements to how overlapping interactable objects work. This includes Cypher’s Spycam, which will no longer prevent you from attaching to a rope if you’re directly looking at it.

As you can see from the patch notes further down the page, Riot has improved the performance of Iso’s Kill Contract ability.

That’s on top of a ton of bug fixes across various maps, including Abyss and The Range. Indeed, this includes a fix for a minor visual issue for the railings around Defender Spawn.

Elsewhere, there are also console-specific fixes for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

This includes a fix for an issue where Harbor’s High Tide wall would end prematurely, as well as a fix for an issue where pressing an Ability button while diffusing the Spike would equip a weapon.

Check out the Valorant update 9.03 patch notes below.
