VALORANT Introduces Tejo, a Colombian Initiator with Explosive Abilities

The 26th agent in Riot's tactical shooter debuts January 7, bringing a disruptive kit designed to pressure opponents out of position.

Tejo is VALORANT's newest agent and the game's seventh Initiator, hailing from Colombia with a background in intelligence and ballistics expertise.
His abilities focus on suppression and disruption, including a sticky grenade, a stealth drone, and self-guided missiles for strategic area control.
Tejo's ultimate ability, Armageddon, unleashes a devastating airstrike along a chosen path, forcing enemies to vacate defensive positions.
Riot Games is also introducing a new cosmetic type called FLEX, with one free item and another available through the upcoming battle pass.
Tejo will be available starting January 7, coinciding with the launch of VALORANT's 2025 Season and Act I, which includes additional updates and content.
