Could not install a required dependency for Valorant
Ran into this issue myself! Usually, it's a problem with the Microsoft Visual C++ redistributable or DirectX. Try updating those first. Another sneaky culprit can be your antivirus blocking some of the install files, so check that too. If all else fails, a fresh reinstall of Valorant might be the ticket. Worked for me!

If you're getting dependency errors, it's likely a DirectX or Visual C++ issue. Head to Microsoft's official site and download the latest versions. Restart your PC and try the install again. Also, make sure your Windows is up to date!
Check your system specs! Valorant can be picky. If your PC doesn鈥檛 meet the minimum requirements, it might not install correctly.
Just disable your antivirus during the install, then re-enable it. Easy fix.
