What is Valorant, the Inspiration for the Helmet?
Valorant is a first-person shooter (FPS) game developed and published by Riot Games. Officially released in June 2020, the game stands out for its combination of typical tactical FPS elements, like those of Counter-Strike, with unique character abilities similar to those in MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games.
In Valorant, players are divided into two teams of five members and take on the role of “agents,” each with a set of special abilities that can be strategically used during matches. The main objective is to complete missions such as planting or defusing a bomb, depending on the team, with a strong focus on strategy and team cooperation.
