What is VALORANT?

In case you aren’t familiar with this epic game, VALORANT is a 5v5 character-based tactical first-person shooter (FPS) for PC where precise gunplay meets unique agent abilities. Developed by the makers of League of Legends, Riot Games, the main game mode focuses on Search and Destroy where one team attacks by planting a bomb, and the other defends by avoiding detonation.
