Riot Games has released a new gameplay video of its Counter-Strike clone Valorant. The game is scheduled to release later this year.

The game is described by the development studio as a "5 versus 5 character-based tactical shooter". The gameplay released, however, shows clear resemblances to that of Valve's competitive shooter game Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

The twist to gameplay is what Riot calls "tactical shooter meets hypernatural powers". The character you select provides additional power-ups and abilities to beat players without necessarily having to focus on precise aiming and skill, similarly to Apex Legends.
