Riot Games’ team shooter doesn’t have any plans to fade away soon. In fact, Valorant is expanding its reach thanks to this week’s console launch on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. This makes the first time that Riot’s had a live service console title, so that’s a notable piece of company history in the making right there.
Valorant is now available to play on these platforms in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, and Brazil. However — and we know it’s your next question — the shooter isn’t using crossplay with PC, due to the title’s renowned standard for competitive integrity.” That’s a fancy way of saying “mouse-and-keyboard isn’t like a controller.”
All versions are also getting a patch with “new agents, maps, premium content, and additional live service features.”
