A 75 average, but 518 ratings means plenty of people love it anyway. This is about the gunplay, from the studio behind League of Legends. Fantasy, science fiction set the stage, the shooting does the talking. The player base IS the game. Jump in while it's hot.

About this game

Valorant is a character-based 5v5 tactical shooter set on the global stage. Outwit, outplay, and outshine your competition with tactical abilities, precise gunplay, and adaptive teamwork.

VALORANT is set in a near-future Earth after a mysterious event called First Light grants select individuals powerful abilities through a resource known as Radianite. The VALORANT Protocol is formed to respond to escalating threats involving this energy, as tensions rise between Alpha Earth and its alternate counterpart, Omega Earth. Both worlds become connected through a mirror dimension, leading to repeated incursions where Omega Earth agents attempt to extract Radianite from Alpha Earth. As the conflict grows, the VALORANT Protocol uncovers deeper secrets behind Kingdom Corporation and the true nature of First Light, while also confronting the existence of alternate versions of its own agents across both realities.
