What are you waiting for to test VALORANT on console?
After much anticipation from fans from all around the world, the VALORANT Console Open Beta kicked off on Friday, July 26.

Now, instead of players getting codes like they did for theVALORANT Console Limited Beta test, anyone can simply download VALORANT on either the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S, and start shooting heads in the Open Beta.

If you wish to start playing the VALORANT Console Open Beta, here’s how to download it.
