Valorant map pool: All maps in current rotation & patch 10.0 changes

Valorant has a rotating map poo,l as Riot Games artificially caps the number of maps in the rotation to try and spice things up. Here are all the maps in the current rotation and the new rotation coming on patch 10.0.

The Valorant map pool has been updated for about every Valorant Episode since Episode 5. The game has 11 maps currently and keeps seven in the rotation for Ranked play and esports competitions.

Riot does this to give fans a chance to learn every map without it feeling daunting as learning just seven instead of 10 to start should be much easier. The developer also takes maps out of the rotation to give its workers some time to tweak them and improve the player experience.

Here is a list of the maps currently in the Valorant map rotation that will be updated as Riot removes and adds new maps in.

What is the current Valorant map pool?

Here’s Valorant Valorant map pool rotation:

  • Ascent
  • Sunset
  • Bind
  • Pearl
  • Split
  • Haven
  • Abyss

Riot announced on November 22, 2024 that Ascent and Sunset will be removed from the map pool, with Fracture and Lotus being added back in for patch 10.0. The map rotation on this patch will be as follows when that patch arrives in 2025:

  • Pearl
  • Split
  • Bind
  • Haven
  • Abyss
  • Fracture
  • Lotus

This list of maps is eternally controversial in the Valorant community, as fans have been calling for the removal and improvement of maps like Ascent for a long time. This time around, they finally got their wish.

This list encompasses ranked play and Valorant esports and is not the rotation for maps in other game modes like Spike Rush or Deathmatch. All maps are available for those modes.

Other modes like Team Deathmatch also have separate maps from the competitive side of the game.
