Do you need Windows 11 to play Valorant?
Nah, you don't need Windows 11 to dive into Valorant. The game runs smooth on Windows 10, too. Riot Games made sure Valorant is accessible to as many players as possible, so they optimized it for various versions of Windows. Just make sure your system meets the minimum specs, and you're good to go!

Windows 11? Absolutely not required! I've been playing Valorant on my Windows 10 rig since the beta. Runs like a charm. So, don't worry about upgrading your OS just for Valorant.
Lol, no. Windows 7, 8, 10, or 11, Valorant doesn't discriminate. Just make sure your PC isn't a potato.
