Highlights
Valorant has released Patch 7.03 just a few days after the start of Valorant Champions 2023.
Patch 7.03 introduces some player behavior updates, store changes, and necessary bug fixes.
Here is everything you need to know about the Valorant Patch 7.03.

Valorant released Episode 7 Act 1 on 27th June, introducing many changes in the game along with the introduction of a new Sentinel Agent called Deadlock, which was an instant hit with community members.

Since then two updates for the game have been rolled out by the developers, Patch 7.01 and Patch 7.02, consisting of important additions like Premier Ignition Stage, Upgraded Sound Generation Engine, and Integrated Esports Hub.

Now, Patch 7.03 has also been dropped with some minor changes including a feature to mute players, quality of life changes in regards to locating and equipping items more easily, and some necessary bug fixes.

Valorant Patch Notes 7.03 - Complete Details

Valorant Patch 7.03: General Updates

  • We have restructured the rendering system with the goal of making the system more maintainable in the future.

Valorant Patch 7.03: Player Behaviour Updates

  • We added party text mutes for people who have received team text mutes.

  • We added formatting changes to our behavioral warning messaging system in order to improve visibility and readability.

Valorant Patch 7.03: Store Updates

  • After purchasing or unlocking Battle Pass or Event Pass items at the end of a game, players will now be able to immediately Favorite the newly purchased or unlocked - weapon or accessory item on the confirmation screen.

    Do keep in mind that titles are not included as part of this change.

  • After purchasing or unlocking a Battle Pass or Event Pass Spray at the end of a game, you will now be able to directly navigate to that newly acquired Spray in the Collections tab from the confirmation screen.

Valorant Patch 7.03: Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where a white line appeared on Player Portraits when an ultimate ability was used.

  • Fixed an issue where a shield's number value appears red in the shop upon damage and then when buying it back again.

  • Fixed a font issue where Greek Tonos was not rendering for Account Names.

  • Fixed a bug where VOIP Ducks Flavor VO (a setting that, when turned on, makes in-game sounds slightly lower, in order to prioritize party/team comms, was not functioning as intended.

  • Fixed a bug in the Esports Hub that was causing the Schedule to show incorrect Time/Days due to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) time conversion.


Interestingly no Agent or Map balance changes have been made for Valorant along with Patch 7.03, despite many in the community pointing out how absurdly strong Deadlock's ultimate ability has proven to be.

Maybe the developers want to ride out the wave a bit longer and make some more serious gameplay changes along with Patch 7.04 whose test servers are scheduled to go live on the Valorant PBE (Public Beta Environment) on 28th August, 8:00 AM PT (Pacific Time).
