Gaming and music collide in a powerful new way as VALORANT introduces its latest agent, Miks, a Controller who brings rhythm, energy, and teamwork to the forefront of every match.

Revealed during the electrifying grand finals of VALORANT Masters Santiago, Riot Games unveiled Miks as the newest addition to the ever-evolving agent roster. Hailing from Croatia, Miks isn’t just another tactical character, he’s a sonic force, channeling the power of sound to unite his team and set the tempo on the battlefield.

With a personality as vibrant as his abilities, Miks thrives on connection and momentum. His playstyle encourages coordination, making every round feel like a perfectly synced performance. Whether you're pushing as a team or holding your ground, Miks empowers players to move as one.

Adding to the experience is a fresh musical collaboration that perfectly captures his identity. The reveal cinematic features “Clarity (VALORANT x BUNT. Remix)”, a reimagined version of Zedd’s iconic track by rising DJ and producer BUNT. The remix blends nostalgia with high-energy beats, mirroring Miks’ dynamic presence in-game.

“I’ve loved games my whole life, and VALORANT has been one of those worlds I kept coming back to. Making music for it is a real honor,” shares BUNT. “With Miks, we wanted to lean into his vibrant sonic identity and create something that matches his presence.”

Riot Games’ creative team echoed this vision, with Lead Music Supervisor Jonny Altepeter noting how the remix amplifies the agent’s spirit, while Game Designer Kevin Meier revealed that Miks’ abilities were actually built from musical elements, highlighting how deeply sound is embedded into his character.

Music isn’t just a theme, it’s his story. Before joining VALORANT, Miks had a strong musical background, shaping his upbeat, social personality and his ability to uplift teammates in high-pressure moments.

Miks’ Abilities:
  • Harmonize – Boost yourself and an ally with a Combat Stim that refreshes with every kill.
  • M-pulse – Deploy a sound device that can either heal teammates or concuss enemies.
  • Waveform – Strategically place smokes across the map for tactical advantage.
  • Bassquake – Unleash a powerful sonic wave that disrupts enemies with knockback, deafening, and slowing effects.
Miks officially drops on March 18, 2026, as part of Season 2026 // Act 2. The new act also brings exciting additions like the Blackthorn Collection and a fresh Battlepass packed with rewards including the Soulburst Bandit, Dragon Gate Phantom, and Flick of the Wrist Card.

Whether you're a casual player or a competitive grinder, Miks offers a refreshing, music-driven twist to gameplay, proving that sometimes, the key to winning is all about finding your rhythm.
