Valorant fans, we may have just gotten our very first look at agent 29—and it’s shaping up to be one of the most mysterious reveals yet.

A now-viral image allegedly snapped at Masters Toronto is making the rounds online, and it might be teasing the silhouette of Valorant’s next agent. This figure appears on an overview poster showcasing Valorant’s 2024 timeline, standing next to the already-released tejo and Waylay.

Leaked Agent 29 Silhouette: What Are We Looking At?

The image was first spotted by Marpkat_ on Twitter, a known and usually reliable source for early Valorant leaks. In the image, Agent 29 appears slightly off in proportions compared to the other agents—but that could just be because the art isn’t finalized yet. After all, this agent isn’t expected to drop until patch 11.8 in mid-October, shortly after Valorant Champions wraps up.

Let’s be honest—this silhouette has us squinting hard. But a closer zoom reveals what looks like a shuriken or some sort of throwing weapon in the agent’s hand. Could this be the game’s next stealthy Operator?

And then there are the coordinates on the left 14.7167° N 17.4577° W. They point to Western Africa, a detail that immediately stands out. Could Valorant’s next agent hail from that region? Riot has been making a push for global representation, and this would be a bold new step.

What Role Could Agent 29 Fill?

While Riot hasn’t confirmed anything, there’s a strong case for Agent 29 being a controller. Clove was the last controller added—and that feels like ages ago in Valorant time. It would make sense for the agent class rotation, but don’t rule out a Sentinel, Initiator, or even a Duelist.

Remember that teaser clip from the start of the year showing Raze’s grenade disintegrating mid-air? We haven’t seen that mechanic introduced yet, which has led to speculation that Agent 29 could feature a trophy system-style ability—one that destroys or disables enemy utility. Not only would that be an awesome twist, but it would also fit Riot’s recent comments about combating ability overload in Valorant.

So What’s Next?

At this stage, the only solid clue we’ve got is the silhouette—and maybe the object in his hand. Everything else is pure speculation, but that’s half the fun, isn’t it?

With four months to go, we’ll no doubt get more teasers as we inch closer to patch 11.8. Until then, keep your eyes on that mysterious silhouette. It might just be your new main.
