Riot's Valorant game director Joe Ziegler previously mentioned that the developers wanted to create a game mode that would greatly alleviate the stress of Valorant's competitive matchmaking. Existing game modes like Deathmatch and Spike Rush are more like warm-up sessions than stress busters, and that's why Valorant is sorely in need of a better game mode that can be just as fun as League of Legends .

However, what really surprises fans is that one of the mods is a battle royalethe probability of it happening is very high. "Includes Alt6 - Orbs (like Spike Rush), Operator Orb, Phantom Orb, Jett & Raze Ultimate Orbs, Health Small Orb," writes Valorant Leaks.
According to the datamine, the ALT 6 game mode will feature an orb-collecting race quite similar to the core gameplay mechanics of any sandbox battle royale IP. Similar games like PUBG, Fortnite, and Call of Duty Warzone are incredibly popular among first-person shooter fans. If Riot wants to build a game mode around this genre, Valorant will benefit greatly from it. The second datamine points to a mod called 'SiteRush', which, according to Valorant Leaks, is a mod that revolves around planting the Spike as soon as possible. This is reminiscent of CS: GO's 'Retake' game mode, which was also very popular in Valve's game. The so-called "retake" mode is being tested at the "C-Site", which hints at the Reactor field in Haven.
