Valorant fans have a new year present awaiting already! The highly awaited Valorant Episode 8 Act 1 is just around the corner and it’s bringing players an impressive Outlaw sniper to take on the enemies. As the countdown to the Riot Games’ big update begins, the early access gameplay footage of the Outlaw gun takes the internet by storm. 

From the next patched rotations to Icebox updates, Valorant fans have a busy week scheduled ahead. Of course, there couldn’t have been a better way to kick off a new tactical-shooter season than being subjected to such a promising update. However, if there was anything that felt missing, this new Outlaw sniper has got it covered. The Valorant developers had been teasing the community with a big weapon addition in the coming update. Now, the early access feature has allowed the fans to have a look at what’s in store for them!

Valorant Outlaw sniper early access footage takes the web by amusement

When the other side is utilizing light shields, players are supposed to purchase the gun as a bridge weapon or as an inexpensive way to purchase rounds when they are low on cash. The curiosity around the gun’s numbers on various eligibility parameters is obvious. Let’s have a look at the perks of the Valorant Outlaw sniper. 

• Very high wall penetration
• Strong hip fire (no scope) 
• Reloading 1 bullet is faster than reloading 2 
• Players can break KJ Ultimate with 3 bullets
• Destruction: Headshot 248, Body 140, Legs 119

Regarding adversary skills, the Outlaw eliminates the Sova drone, Wingman, Dizzy, Boombot, Trailblazer, and Seekers with a single blow. Thrash can be eliminated with two rounds from the weapon, but strong utilities like Sage Wall, Deadlock Barrier Mesh, and Harbor Cove require numerous shots to be eliminated.

Quite evidently, one of the most lethal arsenal’s to exist in Valorant to date. Other than the early access snippet, there’s not much revealed about the gun yet. Although reports suggest the gun is priced at 2,400 in-game credits. Further, players who have used the gun in early access have highlighted the weapon’s collateral.
