It seems Riot Games is preparing a new map for Valorant, their tactical shooter which was released this past June, with hints in recent updates being dissected by fans.
With Icebox being the only map added after release, it seems we're due for a new sandbox, which can come as soon as Episode 3, bringing the pool to a total of six after Ascent, Split, Haven, Bind, and Icebox.
Let's break down everything we need to know about the new Valorant map, including a possible release date, name, location, and more.

With Episode 2 Act 2 still underway with at least two more weeks to go, we can definitely expect news of the map as soon as Act 3 rolls around.

With the release of the recent Caribbean-themed Night Market, it's speculated that not only the new map but also Valorant's Agent 16 hails from the region.
Cynprel revealed that the coordinates featured on the Night Market official promo image point to the Bermuda Triangle, seemingly confirming this as the location for Valorant's six map.
