Perfect aim meets abilities built to break the plan.
VALORANT is a free fps game released under Free to Play. It runs on Windows, PlayStation, Xbox, needs about 30.0 GB of disk space, and requires no account, payment or trial. On a computer, the fastest route is the PlayBound Launcher. On a phone or tablet, use the official store or site instead.
One-click install
PlayBound fetches the official release — no third-party mirrors.
Install the PlayBound Launcher, then find VALORANT and press Install. The launcher downloads the official release, unpacks it and creates a shortcut. This is the fastest route and it never uses third-party mirrors.
Alternatively, download VALORANT directly from the official site at https://playvalorant.com. Always download from the official source — third-party mirrors of free games are a common malware vector.
Windows
Run the downloaded installer and follow the prompts. If Windows SmartScreen warns about an unrecognised publisher, that is normal for open-source projects without a paid code-signing certificate — choose More info, then Run anyway.
Launch the game and look at the settings menu before your first session — resolution and control defaults are worth checking. VALORANT needs roughly 30.0 GB of free disk space.
