Gekko and his little friends are here
braveGekko’s newest agent is revealed. The new agent got his first preview during Riot’s Valorant Champions Tour Lock // In Tournament Finals in Brazil on Saturday. The reveal included a trailer that showed off Gekko’s appearance and abilities, which mostly come in the form of his adorable friends who help him out during matches.
Gekko is a beginner, which means he has abilities that help him access locations and take advantage. Among those abilities are a blinding ability and a detection ability, both of which should give him a little bit of information and cover as he heads into battle. He also has an ability that allows him to remotely plant or defuse bombs by sending one of his creature friends to do so for him.
All of this should give Gekko one of the most unique combos in the game brave So far, but to get a full idea of its capabilities you can read their descriptions below:
