VALORANT’s in-game tournament system Premier open beta releases soon—and its full launch is already scheduled

The global open beta phase for Premier, the in-game seasonal competitive tournament mode in VALORANT that will serve as the official path-to-pro starting point in the future, is arriving soon with the full launch planned for not long after.

Riot confirmed in an announcement today that the global open beta phase will launch officially on April 25, 2023, along with the start of Episode Six, Act Three. Following the conclusion of this beta phase in late May, and after an additional beta phase in July, Premier is set to launch in full in August after the conclusion of VCT Champions 2023, the official world championship for VALORANT.
