Can you change usernames on Valorant?

Answered by John Hunt

You can change your username on Valorant, but there are some restrictions and limitations to keep in mind. As of now, you are allowed to change your Valorant username once every 30 days. So, it’s important to make sure you choose a username that you’re happy with, as you won’t be able to change it again for at least a month.

To change your Valorant username, you’ll need to follow a few steps. First, you’ll need to log in to your Riot Games account, as Valorant is developed by Riot Games. Once you’re logged in, navigate to the account settings or profile settings section of the website. Here, you should be able to find an option to change your username.

Click on the option to change your username, and you’ll be prompted to enter a new one. Take your time to think of a new username that you like and make sure it follows any rules or guidelines set by Riot Games. Once you’ve entered your new username, double-check it to ensure there are no typos or mistakes.

After you’ve confirmed your new username, you’ll need to save or apply the changes. Some games or platforms may require you to verify your new username through an email confirmation or by entering your account password again. Make sure to complete any additional steps required to finalize the change.

Once you’ve successfully changed your username, you’ll need to relaunch Valorant for the changes to take effect. Simply closing the game and reopening it should do the trick. Once you’re back in the game, your new username should be displayed.

It’s important to note that changing your username may not affect your in-game progress or statistics. Your past achievements, rankings, and stats will likely remain associated with your account, regardless of any username changes. So, if you’re hoping to start fresh with a new username, keep in mind that your gameplay history will still be visible.

While you can change your Valorant username, there are limitations on how frequently you can do so. Make sure to choose a username that you’re happy with, as you’ll need to wait at least a month before you can change it again. Remember to follow the steps provided by Riot Games to change your username, and relaunch Valorant for the changes to take effect.
