VALORANT’s Sunset minimap has one major problem, and players are annoyed
VALORANT’s Sunset is all pretty, shapely, and fun to explore—until you notice the discomforting oddity plaguing its minimap. For some reason, Sunset’s minimap is aligned from left to right as opposed to the bottom-to-top arrangement we see in other maps, and it’s naturally confusing players.
In a Reddit post dated Aug. 29, a player named MeeseChampion shed light on the anomaly in Sunset’s minimap’s orientation. Interestingly, all other maps, including the reworked Breeze map, feature the bottom-to-top orientation for their minimaps. Note that the problem occurs only if you use a fixed minimap based on the side (attacker/defender) you’re in.
