scalation, ahead of an official announcement, fell through the cracks.
Here’s what we know about the upcoming playlist.Along with Spike Rush and Deathmatch,
there is the usual plant and defuse game form. According to the source there is a new game
mode named Escalation will be appearing soon in the upcoming update. More like any other
mode. This game mode will be fast paced limited time. We will be covering how the mode works,
to when it will actually be available in-game and many more other things.

What is Escalation and how it gonna works in Valorant

Escalation is a five on five game mode where players compete to level up through getting kills.
There are 12 total levels and the team that completes the 12 levels or is the highest level when the
timer expires after 10 minutes wins the game. Each different level grants players different abilities and guns.
The squad level, however, is different from individual player levels.
Every player has an individual weapon level that they must work to complete.
For example :- You might start with a Stinger, for instance. After a handful of eliminations, your weapon could automatically
switch to a Vandal. The first team to push through all 12 levels will be consider the winner, or whichever team is further
along when time expires. To achieve the next weapon level, players must get one kill with the current weapon.
The squad level will still go up regardless, Four players on your squad could be wielding a Phantom while you’re stuck
with a Shorty but players who get kills with weapons below the current squad level will only get half a point for their
squad per kill. On average, games can last roughly 7-9 minutes, according to the leaks. There is a strict 10-minute timer
in place.One of the key features of Escalation is that players cannot use Agent-specific abilities. Instead, there are a
set of global abilities that everyone can use regardless of who they play.

Escalation levels and abilities in Valorant :-

• Level 1: Always either the Ray’s Rocket Launcher Capability or Vandal or Phantom Weapon.
• Level 2: Always either Vandal or Phantom.
• Levels 3to 11: A variety of weapons and abilities
• Level 12: Shorty, Classic, Knife, Stun Arrow or even a snowball thrower
According to Riot, THe players will get 800 experience points for completing a match.
Like with Valorant’s Deathmatch mode, Escalation matches will not count
toward quest progress.Escalation mode is highly similiar to that of Arms Race from Counter-Strike: Global Offensive,
a popular gamem mode that the community was expecting to see at some point of time in Valorant.
This is a limited-time game mode and cant be around forever.
There is currently no word on how long it will stay around, but be sure to check it out when it goes
live with Patch 2.03 later this week.

When will Escalation be available in Valorant?

Despite information leaking online, there’s currently no indication of when Escalation will be live in Valorant.
Given Episode 2 of Act 2 is seemingly set to launch on March 2, there’s a chance Escalation coincides with this major update.
