Ahead of the Champions Shanghai finals, Riot finally revealed the identity of Valorant's next agent: Hush. She will become the game's 31st playable character, arriving around seven months after Miks' launch.
While we wait for her release, here is a rundown of the agent's abilities, role, and all the information revealed at the event.
When Is Hush Coming to Valorant?
Hush is scheduled to arrive in Valorant on Tuesday, October 27. The new character will be available once Season 2026 Act 6 goes live.
The respective patch is expected to roll out on Tuesday at 9:00 AM PT for North America, LATAM, and Brazil servers. European players will have to wait until Wednesday, October 28 at 4:00 AM PT to get the new content.
Hush Nationality and Role
Hush comes from China, the third playable character from the Asian country after Sage and Iso. She is a Duelist, becoming the 9th agent in the role.
Hush Abilities
In terms of abilities, her kit will be based around her telekinesis powers. Here is everything the agent can do once she is added to the game:
Telekinesis (Passive)
- Hush can pick up weapons, the Spike, and INTERACT with switches from an increased range.
Displacement
- EQUIP Displacement. FIRE to throw. ALT FIRE to prepare it instead. REACTIVATE to direct it towards your crosshair. Explodes on any surface or after a delay, pulling all players towards the center and concussing them if they collide with any surface or another player. Resets every two kills.
Flashbulb
- EQUIP Flashbulb. FIRE to throw. ALT FIRE to prepare it instead. REACTIVATE to direct it towards your crosshair. Explodes on any surface or after a delay, flashing all players looking at it.
Flow
- INSTANTLY create an anchor. If Hush is in the air, briefly levitate in place. After a delay, propel towards it.
Suspension (Ultimate)
- INSTANTLY prepare Suspension. FIRE to send it forward, steering with your crosshair. REACTIVATE or press FIRE again to detonate, levitating all players.
Her passive will be a bit different than with other heroes, as this ability will have a cooldown and won't always be available to keep things balanced in the game. To reflect this, the agent will have a special icon on the HUD above the abilities' icons to indicate to players when the passive is available.
When the ability is ready, all interactable objects in the map, such as dropped weapons or map buttons/switches, will have a pink glow around them.
