Technical Details

How Valorant Online Play Works

Console players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S can play together in the same lobbies, with crossplay enabled by default. However, PC players are completely separated and can only matchmake with other PC players. This creates two distinct player pools: Console (PlayStation + Xbox) and PC only. Voice chat works across console platforms, although the usage of Discord is recommended.

Valorant Solo & Offline Play

Valorant is an online-only tactical shooter requiring a constant internet connection. There is no offline mode or single-player campaign available.

Valorant Local Co-Op & Split Screen

Valorant does not support local split-screen co-op. All multiplayer is online-only, with each player requiring their own device and account.

Known Issues & Balance

PC players cannot play with console players in Valorant. Riot Games keeps them separate to maintain competitive balance, as mouse/keyboard provides significant advantages. The precision difference is too significant for Valorant's tactical gameplay, even when factoring in aim assist.
