Esport MeHush becomes VALORANT's 31st Agent ahead of Champions 2026 final
A telekinetic Duelist named Hush has been revealed as VALORANT's newest Agent, set to join the roster on 28 October with a kit built around displacement and crowd control.
VALORANT has unveiled Hush, a Duelist Agent whose powers revolve around telekinesis, according to Esports.gg News. The reveal landed ahead of the VALORANT Champions 2026 grand final.
Hush is described as hailing from Guangdong, China, and is the game's 30th playable Agent, arriving after Miks was added earlier this year. Within the game's lore she is numbered Agent #31, with the identity of Agent #8 still undisclosed.
Her passive, Telekinesis, lets her pick up weapons, the Spike, and interact with doors from a greater distance than other Agents, with footage suggesting a range of roughly 25 to 30 metres. That removes the need to physically approach a dropped rifle on an eco round or sprint across the map to grab a teammate's Operator at a round's end.
Her signature ability, Displacement, is thrown or prepped and then directed toward the crosshair on reactivation. It explodes on impact or after a delay, pulling players toward its centre and concussing anyone who hits a surface or another player in the process, and it refreshes after two kills. Esports.gg News likened the effect to Astra's combined suck-and-concuss ability, though what counters might exist against it remains unclear. The 'prep' function allows the projectile to stick to a surface and launch from there instead of from Hush directly.
Flashbulb, her first ability, serves as her main entry tool. It can be thrown or prepped and redirected on reactivation, exploding on a surface or after a delay to flash enemies. When prepped it bounces slowly, meaning players will need to learn its distinct sound and visual cues before the flash itself triggers.
Her second ability, Flow, instantly creates an anchor point. If Hush is airborne when she uses it, she briefly levitates before being propelled toward that anchor after a short delay. It functions as her mobility tool, and the brief hover could be used to catch opponents off guard, such as when dropping from high ground. It is not yet confirmed whether she can fire accurately while airborne.
Her ultimate, Suspension, is prepared instantly and then fired forward, with the player steering it using their crosshair before detonating it with another button press or reactivation. Esports.gg News compared the steering mechanic to how Skye controls her bird ability. On detonation it levitates every player caught in its effect for four seconds, including Hush's own allies.
Hush is scheduled to join the VALORANT Agent roster on 28 October, according to Esports.gg News.
