Okay, so I wanted to get a real sense of how many people are actually playing Valorant these days. It’s a popular game, no doubt, but I wanted some hard numbers. So, I started digging.

My Search Process
First, I fired up my trusty search engine. I tried a bunch of different searches, like “Valorant active players,” “Valorant player count 2024,” and “Valorant monthly users.” You know, the usual stuff.
I spent a good chunk of time sifting through the results. It’s a bit of a mess out there, honestly. Lots of websites with numbers, but it’s hard to know which ones are reliable. Some sites are clearly just guessing, throwing out big, round numbers that don’t seem based on anything concrete.
I tried to avoid these clickbaity-looking sites and focused on ones that at least seemed to be citing sources or explaining their methodology, even if it was just in a general way.
Putting the Pieces Together
After all that searching and reading, I started to get a general picture. It’s not perfect, by any means, but it’s the best I could do with the publicly available info.

So, that’s my little journey into the world of Valorant player counts. It’s a bit of a wild west out there in terms of data, but I feel like I at least got a ballpark figure.I did learn that it takes time and effort to get accurate data.
