Surprise! VALORANT is now available on console

Riot Games has pulled off a surprise attack by shadow-dropping VALORANT on consoles today. The tactical shooter is now live on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, bringing its intense gameplay to a wider audience.

After gathering invaluable player feedback during VALORANT’s beta testing on console over the last couple of months, Riot has been refining the game to ensure a smooth and competitive experience. But apparently, there wasn’t much to tweak because today, the developer launched a full console release that brings the core VALORANT experience to all console players across North America, Europe, Japan, and Brazil.
