At the Summer Game Fest 2024, Riot Games announced that Valorant will soon be available on Xbox and PlayStation consoles, a Dexerto report said. A limited beta will launch in select regions for players to test the game.

Beta Start Date and Duration

The Valorant console beta will start on June 14, 2024. The duration of the beta has not been specified by Riot Games. It is also unclear if there will be downtime between the closed beta and the official release.

Regions

The beta for the console version of Valorant will be available in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe and Japan. The game will be playable on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Riot Games has indicated that the beta may be rolled out to other regions after this initial phase ends.

How to Sign Up?

Players interested in the Valorant console beta can check their eligibility and register for access on the Valorant beta website. There is no specified time frame for when the game will exit beta and be fully released on consoles. However, when Valorant's beta was released on PC, it only took a few months to reach its full release.

Cross-Play and Progression

Valorant will not have cross-play between console and PC players to maintain "competitive integrity." However, players can connect and share an inventory across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 if they use the same account. Progression will be tracked through players' Valorant accounts and will be consistent across different platforms.
