Valorant patch notes 6.06 – small changes this time

Table of Contents Table of Contents

Another set of Valorant patch notes (6.06) is here, and we’ve got the low down for you. It’s only a smallish update this time around, with a couple of tweaks to the latest agent, Gekko, and some bugs and general fixes to boot. Simple stuff, but always important, nonetheless.

If you’ve been playing as Gekko, then the patch notes are going to be well worth a quick once-over to see what’s changed and if your play will be affected. For other players, it’s always just worth a quick scan to see if that bug that annoys you has been fixed, or what other optimisations have now arrived.

The full patch notes aren’t long, but we’ve taken the liberty of making it easy for you and listing them all out below for your convenience.
