It's again that time of the month when we have a new patch. The patch 2.09 is coming out today, and along with other content like a new game mode 'Replications', come new skin lineups. Riot have revealed two new skin lineups, Tethered Realms and Minima, through dev talk. Out of the two new skin lineups, only Tethered Realms will be added to the store with patch 2.09. The other lineup, Minima, is expected to come out in about two weeks. So, let's take a look at the Tethered Realms lineup in detail. If you just want the images, click here.
Valorant Tethered Realms details
Riot have tried a slightly different approach with Tethered Realms by combining two of previous skin sets, Forsaken and Sovereign, and maybe the Winter Wonderland too.
They have again employed the tech used by Winter Wonderland, wherein you get different visuals depending on whether you are standing in a light or a dark environment. So, in Tethered Realms, while you get Forsaken visuals when you are in a darker spot, you get Sovereign visuals when you are in a lighter environment.
However, the melee is definitely something that you might want to get your hands on. The level 2 of Tethered Realm melee gives you both a sword and a dagger.
