Long-awaited VALORANT update finally brings the game to an entire continent

VALORANT has become one of the most global first-person shooters of all time, from the recent dominance of Chinese teams in the VCT to hard-hitting rivalries between North and South America. Yet despite the game’s clear global presence, one entire continent has never had its own server—until now.

After three years of playing the game on incredibly high ping while creating countless Reddit threads and tweets to appeal to Riot, the VALORANT community in Africa is finally getting a server. VALORANT’s executive producer Anna Donlon announced today that Riot will finally be launching servers in South Africa and serve a part of the world that has never been able to experience the game with low ping.
