VALORANT players have been hoping to get a new agent with the next Act. Luckily, it would seem like one should be on the way soon. Thanks to leaks from a known leaker, VALORANT should be adding a new agent named Gekko here soon. Here is the latest on the leaks and what is known about the agent including the VALORANT Gekko Release Date.

Before diving into this, there were rumors of a new agent codenamed SmokeDancer. While nothing has been confirmed, the name Gekko and what has been leaked so far would make it seem as though this could be the same agent. This has happened with agents before.

Here is a look at the new agent below and sometimes, that shows what their abilities could be.

There does not seem to be anything to do with Smoke or Dancing. Even in the other leaks, there was not a whole lot relating to either thing. That being said it still could be a part of the character.

Instead, it seems as though Gekko may be related to Reyna in some way. Maybe a sibling?

Regardless the different figures on its back would make it seem as though they are important for the Gekko abilities. Considering each agent has four special abilities and Gekko has four figures around them (one on their side) they could all be related to the abilities. It will be interesting to see if maybe they are different guns like Chamber but since Gekko is an Initiator, that feels a bit unlikely.

As for the VALORANT Gekko Release Date, there are two dates for fans to watch. The first is March 7, 2023 and that is the most likely date. The reason for that is that VALORANT Episode 6 Act 2 should be coming out then and with Gekko getting announced the weekend before, this would seem the most obvious choice for when fans could play Gekko.

The second and probably the final date for Gekko’s release would be May 9, 2023. This is the VALORANT Episode 6 Act 3 start date. There is a small chance it is this date but that feels extremely unlikely.
