Riot introduces new VALORANT agent recruitment methods to replace contracts
VALORANT is taking away some of the manual steps needed to unlock new agents via a new progression system that will feature “agent recruitment events” launching with the start of Episode Seven later this month.
Up until now, players have been able to unlock new or old agents by activating their agent contracts and earning enough XP to progress those contracts to at least level five. Alternatively, players also had the option of just buying out the levels of those contracts with VALORANT points or acquiring access to all agents by connecting an Xbox account with an active Game Pass subscription.
