Valorant patch 12.04 notes

Which agents changed in patch 12.04?

Killjoy

We are adding quality of life updates to Turret placement that match the cast paradigm of Sage’s Barrier Orb. This will help Killjoy players to angle their Turrets more precisely, without needing to position themselves at specific angles to cover the area they want.

• Turret
  • Buff Can now be rotated while holding down ALT-FIRE. ACTIVATE now swaps Turret direction.

Sova

Added new voicelines for Sova.
