Valorant gets holiday-themed Snowball mode next week

Feeling festive?

Valorant will add a holiday-themed mode called Snowball next week, running for a full fortnight.

Players can expect Snowball mode between 15-29 December, though Riot also mentioned it “will return in the future if it proves popular.”

“In this icy take on team deathmatch, players will duke it out with snowball launchers while evading enemy fire and trying to collect gifts that grant thematic powerups,” Riot continued, explaining the mode.

Players will be equipped with Brimstone’s ‘Killjoy-rigged’ molotov launcher to get the job done. Players can also make use of knives and power-up gifts that will spawn inside the map. Power-ups include a rapid fire boost, a growball (literally a snowball that grows as it travels through the air), a ricochet shot and speed-boosting skates.

Valorant is available now on Windows PC.
