In a recent sit down with Express Online, Valorant Game Director Joe Ziegler said that the door was open for the game to come to consoles and mobile at a later time. Stating:
“While we are exploring other platforms like console and mobile, right now the team is working hard to deliver a top notch experience on PC.”
When he was asked the challenges developing a game outside the League of Legends universe. Ziegler said:
“Team PVP focused games traditionally have a tough time telling stories or even building worlds to tell meaningful stories in, and VALORANT was no exception.
“As we built VALORANT, there were a lot of wild and clever creative ideas we thought about bringing to life (many I’m too embarrassed to mention here), but in many cases the ideas became constraints that would alter the gameplay, or the ideas themselves would be conceptually hard to grasp without material we didn’t support in the game.
“I think our biggest takeaway through all this was a quite simple lesson: no matter what, find the right idea for your size and scale of gameplay and build upon what that is to enhance your play experience.”
Valorant releases this summer on PC.
