With Valorant’s Episode 7 bringing the “Sunset” map, players are expressing a desire for a fresh and dynamic experience with a jungle-themed map as the next release.

When Valorant was initially launched, it featured four maps—Bind, Split, Haven, and Ascent. Over nearly four years, the game has expanded to include 10 maps, offering variety for players engaging in the classic 5v5 mode, excluding Team Deathmatch exclusive maps.

As the community anticipates the next map release, some players feel that the recently launched Sunset map in Episode 7 has left them wanting more. A Reddit post on February 16 presented a compelling idea: a jungle-themed map. The concept involves a dense forest with hills, streams, tree houses, and an army camp style for planting sites. The map would introduce unique elements like vine swinging and occasional wildlife encounters. A central cave with walls that switch every 20 seconds, requiring players to knife mark the walls for navigation, adds an intriguing twist.

Opinions on Sunset’s design being perceived as “stale” fueled the desire for innovation, with players expressing enthusiasm for a jungle map. Many agreed that the proposed concept was exciting, with one player stating that new mechanics are precisely what Valorant maps need.

While the switching walls mechanic received mixed opinions, the overall theme and layout garnered widespread approval. The suggested name for the map, “The Thicket,” adds a touch of Amazonian flavor to the concept.

In the replies, players voiced their anticipation for Riot Games’ next map release, hoping for a fresh and immersive experience that aligns with the dynamic and evolving nature of Valorant’s gameplay. As the tradition goes, Riot has historically introduced a new map during each episode, and the community eagerly awaits the unveiling of the next innovative addition to Valorant’s map pool.
