Tactical Shooter Valorant Goes Into Closed Beta Next Week
/
If you’re itching to try out Riot Games (League of Legends) latest tactical online shooter Valorant — which goes into closed beta on April 7 — there’s only one way for a chance to get in.
You’ll need your Twitch account attached to your Riot account as various streams in Twitch will be giving out invites to the closed beta via the platform’s live drops feature.
What you need to look for are Valorant streams on Twitch and as you watch the stream pray an invite goes your way. The closed beta will only be available for EU and NA regions for now. Riot Games didn’t specify when other regions will get access to the closed beta.
Valorant was first revealed as Project A, one of Riot Games many projects currently in developed at the studio. Valorant is what we get if we merge Overwatch and Counter-Strike together. This 5v5 online tactical shooter has been in development for years and time will tell if this could smoothly enter the esports scene and create a community that could support it for years.
Witchfire's Webgrave update brings deeper builds, better onboarding, and new zones. Here's whether it's finally worth your time in Early Access.
