Although Riot Games plans on releasing the full version of Valorant on Android and iOS, there will be one new feature on the mobile that PC players have missed. In the leaked clip of some mobile gameplay, players get to see the replay and highlights function being added to the game.

The clip also showcased a little gameplay, and it looks almost identical to the PC version of the game. Even the skins in Valorant Mobile are the same as the ones found on PC. As Valorant Mobile is a completely new game in itself, players mostly won’t get to share progress between the platforms.

While these features are not new to the game, they are only available in China. With Riot Games being a subsidiary of Tencent, it’s only natural that the region received significant updates before the rest of the servers.

When will it launch?

Riot Games has not yet disclosed the launch date. However, a tentative time frame of late 2024 has been mentioned. Meanwhile, Valorant Mobile is already running its closed beta program in China.

Any information about the game is sourced through the closed beta. A few significant things that come up are that the game will feature all the characters from the PC game. Players will also get to see the maps that they play and know.

One thing that’s different so far is that aside from skins, players can also customize their character to trigger agent animation upon winning a game. While these have been implemented in the PC games, Valorant Mobile brings in a few animations that haven’t been seen on the PC.
