Valorant console rumor reignites after Riot Games job listing

Rumors about tactical shooter Valorant releasing on console have picked up once again after a new Riot Games job listing. 

Valorant has quickly become one of the most popular FPS games right now. However, only PC players have been able to enjoy the experience that Valorant has to offer.

Back in September 2020, Riot Games confirmed that they were still working on a console edition of the shooter. However, it’s been a year and a half and nothing has come from it.

While rumors of a console version have been floating around, no release date has ever been revealed but that could be changing very soon.

When looking at their website you can see that Riot has posted two jobs for this, which could mean that development for Xbox, PlayStation, and maybe even the Switch could be underway soon.

While it’s been a long time since a console version was confirmed by Riot Ziegler, it’s clear that the team is dedicated to bring the game to all gamers in the world.

It is unknown which consoles the game will be available on. But fans could at least expect it to come out for the Xbox and PlayStation. It could even come to the Switch as the console is expected to have Warzone on it. But no one is sure if Riot will do the same.
