VALORANT Mobile is one of the most highly anticipated mobile games on the horizon, with a massive community eagerly awaiting its release. After a long development period, it looks like Riot Games is finally nearing the finish line.

With VALORANT Console already out, it's now time for the mobile version to shine. In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about VALORANT Mobile.

VALORANT Mobile Release Date and Regional Availability

VALORANT Mobile officially launched in China on April 21, 2025, via Huawei’s AppGallery. This limited rollout helps Riot test the game in a real-world environment before expanding to other regions.

According to rumors, a global release is expected in Summer 2025, though Riot hasn’t confirmed specific dates. The rollout will happen in phases, starting with key markets like India, South Korea, the U.S., and the U.K.

Riot also plans to support players worldwide with localized languages, payment options, regional servers, and region-specific matchmaking and in-game support.

How to Pre-Register for VALORANT Mobile

If you're in China, you can already pre-register through platforms like Huawei’s AppGallery, Tencent’s QQ, or the official VALORANT Mobile website. Players selected for early access receive an email with download instructions.

Outside of China, pre-registration hasn’t opened yet, but it’s expected to go live soon on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Riot hasn’t announced a global pre-registration website yet, so your best bet is to follow official Riot channels for updates.

Is VALORANT Mobile Free?

Yes, VALORANT Mobile is completely free to play. You can access all core gameplay without spending a cent. However, there are optional in-game purchases for cosmetic items like:

Weapon skins
Gun buddies
Agent animations
Player cards
Sprays

There's also a Battle Pass with both free and premium tracks. The premium version offers extra cosmetics but doesn’t provide any competitive advantage, Riot has confirmed that there are no pay-to-win elements.
