It’s been a couple of months since Riot Games announced that it is working on a bunch of games that are quite different from the famous League of Legends. One of the games that stood out the most from Riot Games is called Valorant and it is a 5 vs 5 tactical shooter. The game is similar to popular titles such as Overwatch and Paladins. However, what will make it stand out is the new champions and unique gameplay mechanics that it offers.
Valorant Closed Beta Program
Even though Riot Games has yet to announce the official launch dates for its upcoming dates, the game publisher decided to surprise the gaming industry earlier this morning when it revealed that the closed beta program for Valorant will go live on April 7, 2020.
The closed beta program is going to be available for gamers who live in the US, Canada, Europe, Turkey, Russia, and CIS countries. Riot Games also stated that more regions will be eligible for the Valorant closed beta program in the future.
How to Join the Program?
If you are excited to test out Valorant, then you should know that joining the closed beta program is a bit tricky. However, you don’t have anything to worry about since we are going to show you exactly what you need to do.
First off, you need to create a Riot account and link it to a Twitch account. The next step is to watch specific Valorant closed beta streams that are highlighted on Twitch and hope that you will receive a key from the streamer.
