Time To Rank Up, VALORANT Now Live On PlayStation 5 And Xbox Series X|S
While consoles can crossplay with each other, PC will stay separate in the spirit of fairness.
Well surprise, surprise, surprise. Valorant is now officially live on consoles. If you've been waiting to rank up on PlayStation 5 of Xbox Series X|S, now's your time to shine. The shooter supports crossplay across consoles so Xbox and PlayStation players can play together, but they will still remain separate from PC players in the spirit of fairness.
Outside of gameplay, however, you can link your PC and console accounts so that all of your purchases, including agents, are available on each platform. Even your battle pass progress is cross progression, you'll just have different ranks on PC and console. No jumping platforms to get an edge. Yes, if you played in the console beta, ranks have been turned back on, so get to leveling now.
