How do I play Valorant on a Mac?
Honestly, just borrow a Windows laptop from a friend. It's a lot less hassle than partitioning your Mac or dealing with potential performance issues. Valorant is super fun, but not worth turning your Mac into a Windows machine for.

As much as I'd love to say 'just click and play,' Valorant isn't natively available on Mac. You gotta get creative and use a Windows partition on your Mac through Boot Camp. It's a bit of a process but totally worth it for those crisp headshots. Make sure your Mac's specs can handle the game, and don't forget to switch back to macOS when you're done gaming to keep your Mac running smoothly.
You can't directly play Valorant on macOS because it's a Windows-exclusive game. But, there's a workaround! You can install Windows on your Mac through Boot Camp Assistant. This lets you partition your Mac's hard drive to install Windows, and then you can download and play Valorant just like on a Windows PC. Remember, you'll need a valid Windows OS license and ensure your Mac meets Valorant's system requirements.
Though not officially supported, using a cloud gaming service like NVIDIA GeForce Now could be a workaround. If they have Valorant available, you can play it on your Mac without worrying about partitions or dual boot. You just need a strong internet connection!
