Recent updates have pointed to possible 2022 release, but Riot has yet to announce an offiicial release date for VALORANT Mobile. However, a beta version of VALORANT Mobile is expected to release very soon.

Riot's Anna Donlon already confirmed that VALORANT Mobile currently under development. The executive producer said that the highly-anticipated mobile game should be ready in the second full year of VALORANT, which would be 2022, but there are no clear signs that it will be released anytime soon.

According to leaker Shaun Weber, the closed beta of VALORANT Mobile started in selected countries in July, and that more details will be revealed soon.

The open beta will likely be released by late 2022.

During a July 2021 interview with ONE Esports, Riot General Manager Justin Hulog said that the mobile version would be arriving in Southeast Asia first (SEA).

"In many ways, it does make sense to potentially go out in Southeast Asia first," Hulog said. "But there are also unique challenges and very high expectations for how a game should perform on mobile. That could mean that we may look at other regions that are less demanding first."

"VALORANT Mobile is going to have a really big focus in Southeast Asia just because of the fact that it is a mobile-first region," Hulog added, citing the advantages of a later release.

"But whether it comes first is a question that we need to weigh. One of the nice things about not going first is that it gives us time to work out the bugs.

According to Twitter user @ValorantMNews, VALORANT Mobile has entered a less restricted testing phase.


Is there already a trailer for VALORANT Mobile?

Since the open beta for VALORANT Mobile hasn't started yet, it will probably take several months before Riot releases an official trailer for the game. However, gameplay footages from the alpha test of the game have been leaked online, giving fans an early look of the VALORANT Mobile's interface.
