Check before installing
- This installs the launcher. The game itself downloads afterwards and needs tens of GB more.
- This is the Korean server build. Accounts from other regions will not connect.
- It installs Vanguard, an anti-cheat driver that runs from boot. A restart is required after install.
What it is
Riot Games’ 5v5 tactical shooter, combining gunplay with character abilities. It uses the same Riot account as League of Legends. The game is free; only cosmetic items are paid.
When to pick this
If you are reinstalling VALORANT. If you play League too, they share the Riot Client, so add both together.
Details
Vanguard anti-cheat
Vanguard installs alongside and runs from system boot. A restart is required after install, and it is worth knowing about beforehand if that approach concerns you.
Disk space
This installs the launcher. The game downloads afterwards and needs tens of gigabytes more.
Server region
This is the Korean build. Accounts from other regions will not connect.
After a reformat
Vanguard reinstall and reboot
The anti-cheat (Vanguard) installs afresh and demands a reboot. Copying the game folder does not skip this.
Settings are on the account
Sensitivity, keybinds and crosshair are stored on the Riot account and return on sign-in.
