Ello!
So, I just came across some news that Valorant might be getting a major upgrade to Unreal Engine 5! Honestly, I think this could be a game-changer (pun intended
). If you’ve played Fortnite since they made the switch, you already know how much smoother and more visually impressive things can get.
The idea of Valorant with improved graphics and possibly new mechanics sounds awesome, but I’m also wondering what that means for performance. My rig handles Valorant fine right now, but Unreal Engine 5 is known to be a bit more demanding, so I hope they don’t alienate the current player base with crazy hardware requirements.
Also, new "playable experiences" were teased—does anyone else think we might see some cool new game modes? Maybe even a more immersive story-driven aspect? I’d love to see Valorant expand beyond just the tactical shooter formula and add more depth to its universe.
But, yeah, Unreal Engine 5 in Valorant could be a great move as long as they nail the performance optimization. What do you guys think? Excited, worried, or somewhere in between?
