About this game
Valorant is a free to play, team based first person tactical hero shooter set in a near future global setting where two teams of five face off in objective based rounds. Players choose from a growing roster of 29 Agents inspired by different countries and cultures, each with distinct abilities, a charge based ultimate, and a signature ability available from round start. Every round begins with a classic pistol and limited ability charges, with additional weapons and utility bought through an economy system that rewards credits for round wins, kills, and completed objectives. The arsenal spans sidearms, SMGs, shotguns, rifles, machine guns, and sniper rifles, with each automatic and semi automatic weapon featuring a unique recoil pattern that must be mastered for accurate fire. Five Agents are unlocked when you create an account, while the others are obtained using Kingdom Credits earned by playing and completing daily or weekly tasks, or with Valorant Points, a premium currency purchased with real money and required alongside recruitment events or Xbox Game Pass during the first weeks after a new Agent’s release.
