Despite Riot Games kicking off Valorant Episode 4 with a bang, subsequent patches have been sparse and mostly gameplay-focused.

Patch 4.03 follows the same pattern, focusing on improving many areas of the Deathmatch game as well as providing American controller Brimstone with some quality of life improvements to his iconic ultimate.

So, here's a quick breakdown of what's new in Valorant Hotfix 4.03.\

Deathmatch Changes

While Deathmatch is still a niche mode compared to Spike Rush and standard and ranked playlists, Riot gave it some love.

Death times have been reduced from 3 seconds to 2.5 seconds, and new mechanics will ensure you spawn further away from where you were killed. They'll also make sure you don't spawn in "dangerous" places that would almost certainly require you to be hit immediately.

Additionally, adjustments have been made so you can revive against attackers rather than being shot in the back.
