Patch 5.04 mainly focuses on the player’s crosshair settings. Now, players around the world can enjoy more crosshair features to improve their game and skills. This includes the option to set a custom crosshair color for more options, as well as independently tune the horizontal or vertical crosshair lines. The number of crosshair profiles is also expanded to 15 from the original 10, adding new crosshair options for players to explore. Spectators can also rejoice thanks to the inclusion of the ability to copy the crosshair settings of the player they are watching. As for the battle pass, it will be centered around “myths and legends.” Riot Games producer Laura Baltzer describes the battle pass as something that was inspired by “different cultures and stories.” Some of the new weapon skins that players can obtain when grinding the premium version (priced at 1,000 VP or $9.99) of the battle pass include the Piedra del Sol skin series, which is inspired by art and mythology of the Aztecs. A new free event pass will also be available for players, which is dedicated to celebrating Champions 2022. Of course, the usual competitive reset will also take place. Here are the full notes for VALORANT Patch 5.04.
