The Scottish troublemaker, Clove, has joined the fray, and hot on their heels comes Valorant Patch 8.07! This patch focuses on tackling much-need Clove-related bug fixes and grants a significant buff for a beloved Controller.

This patch brings a game-changer for Omen. He can now interact with the spike, doors, and other objects while in his ultimate form (From the Shadows) without cancelling the ability. This opens the door for more creative plays and could have a significant impact on the Controller meta!

Valorant Patch 8.07 release date

After a short cooling-off period following Masters Madrid, Valorant is skipping Patch 8.06 and heading straight for Patch 8.07, which is scheduled to arrive on Tuesday, 16 April 2024.
