Images and a gameplay video from the Chinese beta of Valorant Mobile have surfaced online.
Notable mobile gaming leaker DannyINTEL tweeted the development along with several other mobile gaming-focused content creators on the microblogging site Twitter.

The images show the loading screen, the in-game interface, the home screen, and the character selection screen. While the photos are similar to those on the PC version of VALORANT, there are a few significant differences for the mobile platform.

The UI (user interface) and HUD (heads-up display), on the other hand, have been fine-tuned to suit the mobile gaming experience. The agent selection screen confirms that the mobile version should include agents such as Killjoy, Phoenix, Reyna, Breach, Skye, Sova, and Jett. Cypher and Raze are also visible on the loading screen, but whether the remaining agents will appear in Valorant Mobile is unknown.

Moreover, Jett can be seen roaming on the Ascent map and taking down an enemy with the Classic pistol in a 21-second video clip posted by DannyINTEL.
The map and overall gameplay appear to be identical to the PC version of VALORANT. The controls seem to be highly responsive, which is a positive sign for fans eagerly awaiting its release.
While these leaks are exciting for mobile gamers, it is unknown when the game will be released officially. Riot Games confirmed in June 2021 that a mobile version of Valorant would be released but did not provide a launch date.
Riot has not yet released official screenshots of the mobile game, so take these images with a grain of salt and anticipate changes in the final version.
