Cross-play and cross-progression are crucial aspects to consider when a developer is introducing a game to a new platform, especially with VALORANT, which was built to be a PC title through and through. With new systems being put in place to allow console players to flourish, there needs to be some level of parity between both PC and console players.
Additionally, some players may want to try out the console version of VALORANT without having to rebuild the extensive collection of cosmetics they’ve amassed during the countless hours they’ve spent on the PC version of the game.

If you’re a PC player hoping to play with your new console friend, you’re out of luck. VALORANT does not support cross-play between PC and console, forcing PlayStation and Xbox players to compete against each other while PC players stick to their own community.
