Riot Games just dropped the ultimate teaser that has every Valorant player asking the same question: is a Crotian Agent really coming to Valorant?
On February 23, 2026, Riot released the official Masters Santiago cinematic trailer titled “¡GRITA CON EL ALMA!”. While the two-minute video builds hype for the upcoming international tournament, the final post-credits scene stole the show and confirmed what fans have been speculating for weeks, a brand-new agent from Croatia is on the way.

New Croatian Agent in Valorant – What the Masters Santiago Trailer Actually Shows?
In the last few seconds of the trailer, agents Clove and Killjoy are seen using a high-tech scanner to track an unknown Radiant.
The screen clearly displays real-world GPS coordinates: 45° 48′ N, 15° 57′ E — which pinpoint exactly to Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.

A mysterious device that looks like an upgraded stim beacon or sound emitter appears when a barrier opens. Throughout the entire trailer, recurring sound-wave visuals and vibration effects appear, strongly suggesting the new agent will have sound or vibration-based abilities.
This is the first time Riot has teased a new Valorant agent so heavily inside an event cinematic instead of a standalone short film.
Croatian Agent in Valorant – Ability Speculation and Croatian Origin
Community dataminers have already found game-file strings mentioning “AlliesHealed” and “EnemiesHealed”, pointing toward healing or team-support mechanics.
The leaked internal name “Amplify” and sound-wave motifs make many believe the Croatian Agent will be a Radiant Controller or Sentinel who manipulates sound to buff teammates and disrupt enemies.
If confirmed, this would make the new agent the first Croatian (and first from the Balkan region) in Valorant. Croatian fans are already celebrating on social media, with many guessing voice lines in Croatian such as “Možeš ti to” (You can do it).
Riot has a long history of hiding agent clues in cinematics, trophies, and posters, this feels exactly like the early buildup we saw for Clove and other recent agents.
When Will the Croatian Agent Arrive in Valorant?
Following Riot’s usual schedule, the full reveal and gameplay showcase is expected during the Masters Santiago Grand Finals on March 15, 2026. The agent will most likely launch in-game on March 18, 2026, together with the new 2026 Act 1 battle pass and skin collection.
Masters Santiago runs from February 28 to March 15, 2026, in Santiago, Chile, with 12 top teams competing for the first global title of the year.
