Riot was initially hesitant to provide an exact release date for the game. However, they have given it an exact date, and you will the chance to start playing it on June 2. It will be available to everyone who chooses to download the game.

The competitive shoot will likely evolve over time as players provide their immediate feedback and the competitive scene starts to come to life, much like League of Legends did.

Since Riot initially announced the Valorant, first codenamed Project A and then Project Ares, back in October 2019, players have been eager to try it out to see how competitive it truly is. We can expect to see its full release soon, and players can jump into it immediately.
