Valorant Mobile Leaks New Agent Vyse Arriving April 9

If the leaks hold, Valorant Mobile beta players have less than two weeks to figure out how to play with, and against, a Sentinel who can melt rotations and blind through walls.

A leak circulating on X identifies the next Valorant Mobile agent as Vyse, with April 9 as the claimed arrival date. Gameplay footage reportedly showing her abilities has already started making rounds, which bumps this above the usual datamined-string-in-a-config-file tier of leak. The agent name and the date appear consistently across the source posts, and there is no conflicting information from separate leakers at this point. Riot has not confirmed any of this officially, so treat April 9 as a strong rumor rather than a calendar entry.

Here is what you can confidently baseline from the PC version: Vyse is a Sentinel. Her kit on PC centers on Arc Rose, a flash trap that can be placed through walls and detonates on enemy contact; Razorvine, an area-denial ability that punishes movement through chokepoints; Shear, a wall-trap that erupts behind enemies who cross a trigger line, cutting off their retreat; and Steel Garden, an ultimate that disables opponents' weapons outright. That ultimate, which costs eight orbs on PC, is the ability that will define how the mobile community adapts her. A Sentinel who can strip guns mid-push fundamentally changes how you run retakes and eco rounds.

None of those ability names or costs are confirmed for mobile yet, and mobile ports sometimes adjust tuning, so hold the specifics loosely. What is reasonable to expect is the broad archetype: a defensive anchor who punishes aggression and rewards teams that communicate around her setups.

For team comp, Vyse pairs naturally with initiators who can move enemies into her traps. On mobile, that means pairing her with aggressive entry players who force repositions, then letting Vyse's Shear and Razorvine punish the scramble. She is a poor fit for pure rush lineups. The counterplay, once she lands, will likely mirror the PC meta: go airborne over Razorvine where possible, use utility to clear Arc Rose before committing to a site, and never slow-walk through unmarked doorways.

The same leak feed that surfaced Vyse also referenced two cosmetic bundles, MINIMA 1.0 posted March 24 and PRIME 1.0 posted March 16, alongside a Night Market announcement from March 11. The PC Night Market is running March 26 through April 16, which lines up tightly with that timeline and suggests the mobile content calendar is tracking closer to PC than many players assumed.

For the week before April 9, do not wait to start adjusting your habits. Work on off-angle aim routines, since Vyse's traps will force opponents to commit from non-default positions. If you plan to main her, spend time practicing utility placement timing in corners and just past doorframes, because a trap that deploys one second too early is a wasted cooldown. If you plan to play against her, build the habit of pausing before entries to check for Arc Rose tells.

April 9 is close enough that if Riot wanted to hype this officially, they would have started by now. Either an announcement drops in the next few days, or the leak timeline slips. Either way, the kit is real enough to prepare for.
