If you got the chance to play Valorant during its closed beta period, you may have gotten some time in with an early version of its ranked system and Competitive mode. Loading up the newly launched Valorant to see that Competitive mode missing was probably a bit of a surprise–the only modes available to play at the moment are its default Unrated mode and the newly added Spike Rush. So when is ranked Valorant coming out? And why did Riot remove it in the first place?
Riot doesn’t offer an official Valorant ranked release date, but you can expect its ranked system and Competitive mode to return in “a few patches” after launch, according to Riot’s official blog. We don’t know how long that will take, but Riot has been releasing patches at a fairly steady pace. We will keep you updated.
Riot removed Competitive mode and ranks from Valorant at launch to further improve on the system, but also to give players who didn’t get into the beta a chance to learn the basics.
