What Map is Sunset Replacing in Valorant?

Valorant Episode 7 Act 2 brought Los Angeles to Riot Games' FPS game with new map, Sunset, in place of two staple maps in the competitive rotation.

Valorant Patch 7.04 not only delivered nerfs to half the Agent roster, but it also introduced the highly anticipated Sunset. The new playground was unveiled at Valorant Champions 2023 and received largely positive feedback from the community.

For the next week, fans can play the Sunset only queue to learn all the best spots Sunset has to offer, as well as the best Agents to run on the new map. As players explore Sunset, they will notice two missing maps in Valorant Episode 7 Act 2.

What Map is Sunset Replacing in Valorant?

Sunset is replacing Fracture and Pearl in Valorant Episode 7 Act 2. The new map entered the competitive rotation, along with a newly altered Breeze, to bring a couple fresh options to the Valorant map pool.

Sunset, set in Los Angeles, plays like a traditional Valorant map. With two sites and three lanes, Sunset will play the best for whichever team gains mid control. Much to the community's delight, the map lacks any hindering gimmicks, like Lotus' revolving doors.

Sunset will officially be added to the Competitive and Unrated map rotation in Patch 7.05, launching on Wednesday, Sept. 6, 2023. The patch will also fix Gekko's Mosh Pit buff accidentally released in Patch 7.04.

Valorant Epsiode 7 Act 2 Competitive Map Pool

The Valorant Episode 7 Act 2 competitive map pool consists of the following seven maps:

  • Ascent
  • Bind
  • Breeze
  • Haven
  • Lotus
  • Split
  • Sunset

Players can explore all the maps in the Valorant Premier Launch Stage throughout September and October.

When is Icebox Coming Back to Valorant?

It is unknown when Icebox is coming back to Valorant. The map was removed from the competitive rotation on Apr. 25 in Episode 6 Act 3. The polarizing map is undergoing some changes to hopefully inspire a more diverse play style.

Breeze was kept out of the map pool for almost nine months, so it is safe to assume Icebox will not make its return to Valorant anytime soon.
