Riot producer Laura Baltzer revealed the idea behind the new battle pass theme: "myths and legends," centered around esports and Valorant Champions 2022.
"This pass was the first time we wanted to try to build a Battlepass around a central theme: myths and legends. We wanted the Battlepass to reflect some of the things that were going on in Valorant and make it feel like a memorable part of this moment in time for players."
