Subsequently, we can also expect the Valorant beta to be released prior to the Summer, and hence expect beta testing sign ups to roll out within the coming weeks. This is highly likely considering Riot has announced the game to the public, but is yet still in a stage where only content creators, pros and other invitees have been trialing the game. However, it has been mentioned they will aim to release the game either slightly prior, or at the beginning of the US summer break, around late June to early August.

Valorant release dateĬurrently Riot has not revealed any specific details regarding the release date of Valorant. Many have already compared Valorant as a cross between CS:GO, R6 and Overwatch, with the game having an even balance between the importance of traditional FPS gameplay, and the use of skills and abilities. However, unlike Overwatch, Valorant’s skill system is different, as skills are purchased at the start of every round, providing a greater advantage to the winning team. This increases play making opportunity, and not only limits the skill difference of players primarily to aiming. Valorant, unlike games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, has special skills which players can purchase and use in fights. While in nature Valorant is a first person shooter, it is not simply your ordinary FPS.
