Valorant is one of the biggest and most popular fps games in the world right now and its fans base has only released as the new content as well as its eSports scene grows to an even greater proportion. Riot games have done great in keeping the game healthy and listening to fan feedback which was the reason for its success in the first place. This game became so popular that it had over 14 million players worldwide which was quite impressive. Now the developers are planning on bringing this hardcore fps game to mobile phones which were announced recently by them and there were already many leaks that suggested that a mobile port of the game was in development.
This announcement was made during the first anniversary of the game and was revealed by executive producer Anna Donolon who said that they are excited to offer a competitive Valorant experience to even more players around the globe. Valorant mobile will be released in Southeast Asia according to Riot General Manager Justin Hulog during his interview with ONE Esports. The reason behind it was due to it being as he describes it a “mobile-first region.” But Justin Hulog also said that they will be focusing on other regions as well so that game is of top quality which the players are hoping for.
Valorant Mobile Gameplay
The gameplay details of Valorant Mobile were still unknown but recently a video was leaked that focused on the gameplay aspects of the game. In the beginning, we see the buying phase which is similar to that of the PC version of the game. Afterward, we see the actual gameplay which shows us the button layout and this layout can be changed by the players as they want to. The most interesting thing about this gameplay was that footsteps were visible on the screen which is a feature that isn’t available on the PC version for obvious reasons. There will be many different changes in the gameplay aspect as the game is still in its development stage and things are bound to change.

Valorant Mobile Release Date
As for the release date, there hasn’t been an official release date revealed by the developers. But recently a Twitter user by the name ValorLeaks unveiled that the VALORANT’s exclusive version would require a friend invite system. He also said that the developers will be sending invites soon which could mean that by the end of this year a beta version will be released. And in 2023 the game will fully be ready for launch and one of the main reasons for it is that many other popular games are stepping into the ocean that is the mobile gaming market as it is a vast ever-growing market.
