Yoru "Yoru" is the New Valorant Agent. Draining All Abilities of 14 Agents
Yoru, a new Valorant character (currently codenamed "Stealth" in the game files). We've become aware of all of his abilities, including a particularly crazy ultimate that makes him "invisible" and "invulnerable" when activated.
The Valorant fandom has been looking forward to the arrival of the next agent, known as Agent 14, and now a powerful leak has revealed important details, including all four abilities and a possible name.
A leak, first published on Reddit January 2 , shows that the soon-to-be-released episode XNUMX agent is using his powers in Valorant's training hall. Abilities are mostly based on deception, and one of them is a "sudden" attack.
The leak also appears to reveal Agent 14's official name: "Yoru».
At the end of the video, you can see how the new agent - "Yoru" opens a hole in space. He then grabs Hanni's mask and enters another dimension. According to translated ability details, this ultimate makes Agent 14 "invisible" and may even make him "invulnerable" to attacks.
This can work similar to Wraith's "Into the Void" tactic in Apex Legends.
Here are the in-game descriptions for each of Agent 14's leaked abilities, including the "invisible" ultimate.

How real are the new Valorant leaks?
Although there has been no official confirmation of the leaks - the new images are consistent with older revelations we've seen before.
Late last year, Riot posted a short video on @VALORANTBrazil that seemed to show how to get a look at Agent 14. An unfamiliar face was seen on the selection screen in-game, next to Sage, Brimstone, Raze, and Reyna.
The screenshot showed a mysterious man with blue spikes and a jacket. While no one knew the new Valorant character at the time, he pairs perfectly with this new "Yoru" agent from this week's leaks.
Riot also said in the latest teaser that Agent 14 would "rip" Episode 2. Yoru seems to control portals and open rifts with his Ult, so the leak certainly fits the bill.
The 14th Valorant Agent will be released as part of first act 2 episodes . The next major update will be released on January 12, 2021. Riot Games is expected to officially unveil the new Agent a few days before the game's first event in 2021.
