An Overview For All of the VALORANT Maps

 Since Valorant is based on the "Future Earth", each map is situated in different parts of the world. Matches of the Valorant take place on a map. Each map contains two spawn areas, objective sites where the spike is to be planted, and an restricted area where players can access to the shop during the Buy Phase.

During the launch of the game, there were 4 maps. Valorant currently have 7 different maps for players to battle on. Each map is set in a different place on "Future Earth".

Valorant typically releases new map after every 6 months.

Valorant uses a sophisticated map system in order to increase the variety of maps players will encounter and reducing the possibility of playing the same map multiple times in a row.
