We might soon see a new casual game mode to be introduced in Valorant, but with a unique end game and something more exciting, the likes of which we often came across in multiplayer games like Halo, Call Of Duty, and MMO titles like Destiny 2. 

Ever since Riot brought Valorant on their deck, the first-person tactical shooter has been a resounding success when it comes to development and other factors where the game would need to be updated within regular intervals. With no stone left unturned, the developers just won’s top when it comes to further polish their game with brand new content and cosmetic line.

Most recently, speculations about a new game mode have surfaced, thanks to the esteemed data miners on the internet, ValorLeaks and floxay. ValorLeaks on their Twitter handle tweet about a forthcoming game mode, may either be dubbed as “Control” or “CTF aka Capture The Flag”. 

floxay also shared their insights regarding this newly mined data,

Devs are testing a mode which appears to be some sort of CTF, with 3 (dev?) maps. I wonder how much of this will make it to live/prod in the future.

In the past apart from the Unrated and Competitive, Riot had shipped a plethora of other casual introduced FFA deathmatch, Spike Rush, Snowball fight, and Escalation with the latter two game modes having been put up on a rotation. 

With the above being said, titles like Call of Duty, Halo, and Destiny 2 have widely featured the Capture the Flag and Control game modes, where teams of either six or eight players lock horns to secure grounds named Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie. The side with the most points are the winners once the clock runs out while Capture the flag follows the same format but your team may need to get hold of your opposition’s flag.

Although the developers are yet to officially intreoduces the modes, they are rumored to come out as a part of the Episode 4, given the fact that no new agent releases are on the board for Riot. Backed by floxay, either Control / Capture the flag modes might be played out on a different map as the former’s tweet does hint towards 3 new maps being developed.
