Valorant Update 4.07 Reduces The Power Of Burst-Fire Weapons

Apr 12, 2022 Dani Cook

Several issues have been fixed in the game as well.

Valorant

Riot Games has released patch notes for update 4.07 heading to the multiplayer first-person shooter, Valorant. The popular online game was first released in June 2020 as free-to-play and has since gained a large following. The new update has brought several updates and changes to the game including bug fixes, improved load times, and a reduction in the power of burst-fire weapons. Update 4.07 doesn’t affect the weapons’ damage but players will no longer be able to use the quick-burst mechanic that has become so popular among players.

Check out the full patch notes for Valorant below!
