Valorant is among the top PvP first-person shooters available on the market. The Riot Games-produced title has seen a meteoric rise ever since its release back in 2020. Similar to another FPS shooter Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Valorant offered players in-game items such as weapon skins. While most people thought the content Riot offered with Valorant remains universal everywhere, its new updates for a specific country have shocked the gaming community.

With Valorant’s release in China, shocking revelations have come forth. These show exclusive content and skins available in Valorant China, which was not available in the North American version of Valorant, highlighting the question, is NA Valorant dead?

Valorant China gets new features

Valorant’s release in China has been a long process. While the rest of the world had access to Valorant and could play the game, fans from China waited. After a lengthy period, the Chinese government finally gave its approval for release. Earlier this month, Riot launched Valorant China, sparking controversy about the NA scene in the process.

Once the game came out, fans were quick to point out features they never saw before. Valorant China players can view matches they played, a feature Valorant fans have been asking for ever since its closed beta. Moreover, the footage is just a part of the entire feature. In addition to viewing matches, players can also view other statistics from the game such as utility usage, damage dealt, and many more. The replay feature is named “Fearless Moment”.

The replay feature is just one aspect. Riot includes a new chat feature in Valorant China, similar to the one used by Discord. It makes in-game communication much easier, especially since there is no need for a second software. While it does not sound too big, players can see better performance from their systems since they do not need to run multiple apps at once.

Apart from these features, added features for Valorant China have detailed statistics for each weapon as well as strategy guides. These are accompanied by an assortment of exclusive skins, in addition to those available globally. With only Valorant China receiving these features, fans thought this was the death bell for NA Valorant. However, the lack of these features being released for other regions keeps fans hopeful.

It is not just the NA scene that did not receive these features. Europe and other parts of Asia, where the Valorant competitive scene is quite strong, did not get these features as well. As a result, fans remain hopeful Valorant fans all over the world get access soon!
