VALORANT console introduces Focus, a new feature to aid hipfire
Alongside the announcement that VALORANT is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, Riot Games also revealed a new console-exclusive shooting mode called Focus, which aims to aid hipfire on controllers.
On PC, hipfire is the primary shooting mode, with ADS (aim down sights) as a secondary supporting mode for precision aiming. In a press release about VALORANT‘s console release, Riot explained replicating this experience on consoles proved challenging due to differences in controls and gameplay mechanics.
