However, this FPS could in a more or less distant future experience the same future as League of Legends and thus land on other platforms, such as console and mobile. Last year, during the beta phase, Riot Games said that Valorant could come to consoles after its official launch, but made it clear that the US studio is currently and exclusively focused on the PC scene.
