In addition to Riot's partnership with Microsoft and Xbox, there's a Twitter post covering VALORANT. haberrevealed that Riot has added two new icons to the game for both PlayStation and Xbox. These were found in the game files after the release of Patch 5.03. While Riot hasn't made any official announcements about VALORANT's future platforms, there have been numerous leaks suggesting that it may be coming to consoles in the near future.
