New Valorant mobile leak shows features that are yet to arrive on PC

A slew of features for Valorant mobile.

A new Valorant mobile leak has surfaced online and shows certain features that are yet to arrive on the PC version of the game.

This new leak shows some advanced training modes that include jump peeking and jiggle peeking. Jiggle and jump peeking are some gameplay mechanics that PC and console players implement during matches to gather info on opponent positions.

These types of peekings expose a little part of the Agent’s character model for a brief period. Unlike dry peeking (that exposes the entire character model), jiggle and jump peeking reduce the chances of getting shot by an enemy, as the movement pattern is unexpected and random.

PC players have learned this by trial-and-error, mostly from pros while watching a professional match or livestreams of their favorite players. Allowing mobile players to learn this from a training mode will only jump-start their performance during matches when it finally launches at a later date.

Riot bringing these features to this version of Valorant only signifies how serious they are with the mobile port. At the time of writing, it’s unclear when and if the devs ever decide to bring these features to Valorant PC or consoles.

However, if they do end up bringing them to current platforms (like they did with the revamped training range that first arrived on consoles and later on PC), it will benefit new players as they’ll be ready with some of the most important movement mechanics that you need to use during matches.

The most requested feature from Valorant mobile is the replay system. It’s already present in other shooters, Rainbow Six Siege being a prime example, it would undoubtedly help the majority of the player base to analyze and improve their gameplay.
