Since its release for PC in 2020, Valorant has become one of the biggest competitive shooters around, in spite of the fact that it hasn’t been available on consoles. Of course, there have been some suggestions over the years that that could change soon, and now, Riot Games has finally officially announced that.
At Summer Game Fest, the developer announced that its free-to-play multiplayer shooter will release for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S at some point this year. Check out the brief trailer below, showcasing the game running on console.
A specific release date for Valorant’s console port is currently unknown, but Riot Games has announced a limited beta test for the game, releasing exclusively for PS5 on June 14. The beta will feature multiple modes in Unrated, Swiftplay, Customs, Deathmatch, and Team Deathmatch, with several maps being made available over the course of several weeks.
