Okay, so I’ve been grinding Valorant lately, and I noticed something’s up with the Acts. Like, when does this one end? I checked the in-game timer, and it says Episode Nine, Act Three, is gonna wrap up on January 7th. But then I heard that Episode 9 Act 2 was supposed to start on August 27th? Or was it 28th? I’m so confused!
So I did some digging around, and it looks like the dates are a bit all over the place. Some sources say Act 2 is starting on August 27th in North America, and the rest of the world gets it on August 28th. But then others are saying it’s gonna be August 28th/29th. What the heck, right?
I kept going, trying to get to the bottom of this. Then I saw something about Episode 6, Act 2, coming out on March 7th. Wait, are we going backward in time now? And to make things even weirder, there’s talk about Episode 8 Act 2 releasing on March 5th, 2024, with a launch time around 2 pm PT. Man, my head was spinning at this point.
So, here’s what I did:
- Checked the in-game timer: This was my first step. Gotta see what the game itself says, right? It clearly mentioned January 7th as the end date for Episode Nine, Act Three.
- Scoured the internet: I went through tons of articles and forum posts. This is where I found all those conflicting dates.
- Compared the information: I tried to make sense of all the different dates and times I found. It was like trying to solve a puzzle with missing pieces.
- Looked for official announcements: I figured the best way to get accurate info is to go straight to the source. So I checked for any official news from the Valorant team.
- Made a guess: But I wasn’t able to get the official info. After all this, I’m leaning towards the August 27th/28th dates for Episode 9 Act 2. It seems to be the most consistent one, but I’m still not 100% sure.
Honestly, it’s been a bit of a wild goose chase. I just wanted to know when the current Act ends and the new one begins. But it turned into this whole investigation with conflicting information and confusing timelines. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
And, it turns out, it’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack. I mean, the dates I found are all over the map. It’s kinda ridiculous, to be honest. I just wanna know when I can get back to ranking up. Hopefully, they’ll clear things up soon, ’cause this is just making my brain hurt.
Finally
I guess the lesson here is, don’t always trust what you read on the internet. Especially when it comes to game updates. The best thing to do is probably just wait for an official announcement from the developers. They’re the only ones who really know what’s going on, right?
