VALORANT is a free-to-play 5v5 tactical shooter from Riot Games that has managed to reach an epic player base. Just a year after its release, VALORANT has reached an average 14 million monthly player base. In honor of this achievement, a month-long celebration of events called VALORANT YR1 has been planned for the game. Each will happen on specific days beginning on June 2 and ending on June 22. A squad boost event will top it off and run from June 22 to July 26.
One of our top goals this first year was to earn the trust and respect of the global FPS community, and to prove to them that VALORANT will always uphold the fundamentals of a truly worthwhile competitive tac-shooter. To see our growing player community recognize and appreciate what we’re trying to do with VALORANT is beyond what we could’ve expected and we’re thrilled to soon offer the same competitive VALORANT experience to even more global players.
