No official release date for Valorant console yet? Don’t fret! This article unpacks the beta, what to expect, and predicts when you can finally dive into the action.
Valorant Console Beta: When Can We Expect the Full Release?
Beta Testing in Action
The current beta serves as a crucial testing ground for Valorant’s console adaptation. There’s no official closing date yet, but the developers at Riot Games are clear on their priorities. Their official website states the beta will continue until “our servers and code are fully locked and loaded.” This signifies a thorough testing phase to ensure a smooth console experience.
Players can expect ample warning before the beta wraps up. The developers promise “as much advance notice as we can” through the website and social media channels.
Full Release on the Horizon
With the beta in progress, the exact date for Valorant’s full console release remains to be seen. However, educated guesses can be made. Looking back at the PC version’s release strategy, a closed beta ran from April 7 to May 28, 2020, followed by the full game launch mere days later on June 2nd.
If a similar approach is taken for consoles, the full release could be closer than expected. The current beta kicking off in mid-June might conclude by the end of July, potentially paving the way for a full console launch in early to mid-August.
While this is speculation based on past trends, it provides a possible timeframe for Valorant’s arrival on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Keep an eye on the official Valorant website and social media channels for updates on the beta’s end date and the full release announcement.
