There’s a lot about Riot’s upcoming FPS **Valorant ** that’s still being kept under wraps, but according to one source, the developer has revealed one bizarre weapon skin based on the quirky League of Legends joke character, Urf. Valorant is already being talked about as major competition for games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Overwatch , despite so little being known about


As mentioned before, most of the Act of Valor cast members are actual SEALs.

For that reason, those who're interested in watching a down n' dirty thriller about what life is like on the violent streets of America - for the officers who put their lives on the line fighting crime - might be better served by a film like David Ayer's End of Watch (yes, that drama/thriller deals with regular cops and not SWAT team members).

There's a twist to the classic tactical shooter experience: players will be able to choose from a set of agents all with their own unique skills and abilities - not unlike League of Legends - that hail from real-world locations and cultures.
