Recently, a Valorant content creator known as Kanga released a video titled "VALORANT New Agent Teaser (Agent 26 Lore)," offering fans intriguing hints and teasers about the upcoming agent. The video explores previous teasers such as player cards, potential abilities, and delves deeper into the connection between the new agent and the enigmatic Ravor creatures.

What Are the Ravor Creatures?

These creatures, influenced by radianite, were subjects of study under Project Landfall. There are a total of six known Ravor creatures: four are identified as the abilities of the agent Geckos, while the fifth was featured in a cinematic with the agent Deadlock.

The sixth and final creature, designated as "subject z35," still holds mysteries. This particular entity possesses a distinctive ability to camouflage itself as any type of flora.
