Riot Games drop the cinematic for Valorant Episode 7

Episode 07: EVOLUTION of Valorant featured a team of mercenaries going to Svalbard, Norge, to retrieve a crate for travel. The facility, however, seems to be running on reserve power and without response to comms, foreboding a calamity. The team enters the facility despite this to encounter a mutated bear-like creature. The team battles it out to survive and in the end, one agent survives at the cost of her forearm.

This agent is none other than Valorant’s latest Sentinel-type agent, Deadlock. She is then later revealed to be getting a prosthetic arm from another Sentinel-type agent Killjoy. Both talk over the fine-tuning of her new arm with Deadlock concluding with “When do we leave?”
