The 15th Valorant agent, Astra, is heading to Valorant in the next update this Tuesday, but some content creators have already showcased her unique abilities in their streams and YouTube videos, but just like most new agents, there are bugs that come with the latest update; Twitch star Pokimane has encountered a game-breaking glitch during her recent stream.

During her recent stream, Pokimane was testing Astra, the latest Valorant agent who has a set of cosmic abilities, but when she used her ultimate ability, which lets her connect two points to make a barrier impenetrable by bullets and reduces sounds passing through, something went wrong.

Pokimane tested Astra's ultimate with the spike to see if the barrier would block the explosion, but it didn't go as planned. Not only did the spike's explosion go through, Pokimane's game glitched, freezing the image and letting out a whirring sound of the explosion on repeat as she screams and laughs until she closed the game. Shortly after resetting Valorant, she returned to the game to test it again, but this time the spike is at a further distance. The barrier did not block the damage from the spike explosion, but this time there's no game-breaking glitch.

Astra will be availble for Valorant players to try starting on Tuesday, March 2 along with the game's new act battle pass that offers new weapon skins and cosmetics for players to unlock.
