New material stack for cover in B Site that allows you to isolate angles more effectively and breaks up a vertical 50/50 angle when peeking into the site from B Main.Increased Spike plant zone boundary on B Site.Added an additional trash pile on B Site to prevent defenders from hiding in too deep a nook outside B Main doorway.There is a crate for attackers to utilize on the other side of the doorways as cover, which allows for utility to be thrown into the site from a new angle.This should make the space easier to navigate for attackers, and make it more difficult for defenders to stall Attackers.Increased the width of the B Main doorway.Fixed a bug where attackers at A Lobby could hear gunshots from A Ramps during the buy phase.B Rope Pocket - Smoothed out the hard corner to make clearing the spot easier.Mid Bottom - Adds a small platform that allows players to silently drop down.A Tower - Back section of Tower flattened and changed position of stairs.A Main - Added a small ledge and widened the area for attackers.Fixed a bug where you could stand on a vent in B Garage.A suggested name for Pearl during development was "Cascade" due to the map having attackers cascading into the defenders with its altitude difference.The hole didn't make it past development as its presence didn't match Riot's goals for Pearl being a more straightforward map and it made mid feel small and frustrating to move around.

During development, Pearl had a giant hole in the center of the map, which is where its codename "Pitt" comes from.In the WARM UP cinematic, a map of Lisbon could be seen in the common room.Fracture emails to one of the Omega employees there, RĂºben Pontes, from his niece Aurora and Alpha colleague Oran McEneff mention that he was from a place with a city-wide geo-dome.They were faintly displayed on a pillar in a VALORANT-themed area.Coordinates for Lisbon were teased during RiotXArcane in an interactive event.Pearl had been teased for several months before its release:.Pearl is the first map released to be set on Omega Earth.The cubby will also shrink slightly to keep it from being too deep.A Main to A Site - Tightened the choke to make smoking it easier.A Main - Removing a cut out on the wall to simplify the space.Stack of boxes at bottom of Link shifted from the left side to the right and closer to B site entrance. B Link - Lowered crate at the top of Link so that it can no longer completely hide anyone.A Art - Simplifying the space with less objects so there are fewer areas to check.Mid Top - Pushed in a wall on to remove a 50-50 check.Mid Shops to Mid Plaza - Removed one of the corners.B Main - Lowered waist-high wall on the left side so that it can no longer completely hide anyone.AI (such as Seekers) will now travel through the crouch-only connection near Defender spawn.B Screen - Screen size lowered and widened, with added stack of crates.B Ramp - Screen size reduced, ramp replaced with a small box, attacker cubby removed.
