Riot Games has finally fulfilled the long-awaited dream of fans by officially releasing Valorant Mobile in China on August 19, 2025. Developed in partnership with Tencent’s Lightspeed Studios, the launch marks a major milestone before the popular FPS makes its way to the global market. Unsurprisingly, the news was met with overwhelming excitement, as millions of players have been waiting since the PC version took the world by storm.

Record-Breaking Pre-Registrations

Even before launch, Valorant Mobile was already setting records. The game amassed over 60 million pre-registrations in China alone, with that number later climbing to 70 million before release day. To put it in perspective, within just 10 weeks of opening pre-registration back in April 2025, the game had already surpassed 40 million sign-ups—a clear indicator of just how massive the hype and demand were.

What’s Inside Valorant Mobile (2025 Launch Version)

On day one, Riot delivered a surprisingly complete package for a new mobile FPS:

• 18 playable agents from the PC version, including fan favorites like Jett, Raze, Brimstone, and Neon.

• 9 maps in total—7 adapted directly from PC and 2 exclusive maps for Team Deathmatch mode.

• 10 different game modes, offering both competitive and casual playstyles.

To ensure fair competition, Riot has also implemented a robust anti-cheat system, featuring replay tools, cheat detection, and even hardware fingerprint tracking to block macros and keyboard–mouse mapping. On flagship devices, Valorant Mobile supports up to 120 FPS, promising a smooth and highly responsive gameplay experience.

A Strong Market Debut

Valorant Mobile wasted no time proving its commercial potential. According to Appfigures (via Bloomberg), the game generated around US$1 million in player spending within its first 24 hours, accompanied by nearly 170,000 downloads on iOS App Store. As a result, the title skyrocketed to the #1 spot on iPhone downloads in China.

What This Means for the Future

The launch of Valorant Mobile in China signals the beginning of a new era for competitive mobile FPS gaming. With a wealth of content, advanced anti-cheat protections, technical optimization, and strong esports investment, the game is well-positioned to replicate—or even surpass—the success of its PC counterpart.

For now, the world is watching and waiting. If Riot Games decides to roll out Valorant Mobile globally, the overwhelming reception in China suggests that the game’s future in the mobile space looks extremely bright.
