Valorant Haven map overhead

Valorant Haven map looks very similar to CS:GO maps in ‘conspiracy theory’

By Robert N. Adams

The Valorant Haven map appears to share many design features with two CS:GO maps according to a “conspiracy theory” posted by the esports team Ninjas in Pyjamas at Home. Based on the CS:GO and Valorant images the team has shown, it seems like there might be something here.

If you haven’t been keeping up with first-person shooters lately, Valorant is a new game from Riot Games, the same people behind League of Legends. Valorant has been in a closed beta for a while now, and people are still discovering a lot about the game. Now, one esports team seems to have noticed something rather intriguing about one of the game’s maps.

The image shared by Ninjas in Pyjamas at Home compares the Valorant Haven map with the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive maps de_cpl_mill and de_tuscan. From there, several boxes and colored arrows are used to highlight similar features like bombsites/capture points and the spawns for each team.

You can see this amusing “conspiracy theory” for yourself in the tweet below.
