Riot Games Shares VALORANT Mobile Specs, Closed Beta Set for China
VALORANT, Riot Games' hit tactical shooter, is finally making its way to mobile devices. First revealed in April, this highly anticipated mobile version is being developed with the help of Lightspeed Studios, the team behind PUBG Mobile. With this powerhouse collaboration, fans can expect the same kind of sharp gunplay and team-based strategy that made the PC version so popular.
But here’s the catch: the closed beta will only be available in China for now. This limited launch means that players in other parts of the world will have to wait a bit longer to get their hands on the mobile version.
The good news? Riot is planning big things for VALORANT Mobile. They’ve already lined up the game’s first official esports competition, which is scheduled for July 2025 in Qingdao, China. This event will be hosted in partnership with OnePlus, giving mobile esports fans something to look forward to.
Now, if you're wondering whether your phone can handle the game, Riot has released the hardware requirements.
