Riot Games is celebrating one year of Valorant with the YR1 Anniversary event. Fans of the game can expect it to be packed with events for players to participate in. Also, there would be exciting rewards up for grabs.

Valorant YR1 Anniversary

Riot Games has achieved major milestones with its first-person tactical shooter Valorant in its first full year of release. It has already garnered over 14 million average players a month and has an Esport title, which witnessed one million viewers during its first international LAN event.

For a year, Riot has opened its servers across the world. Currently, it’s planning to scale up with a Valorant Mobile version soon.

YR1 Anniversary Event Pass

To celebrate Valorant’s first birthday, Riot are giving every player a free Event Pass for YR1. It will consist of seven levels, and each one will unlock exclusive YR1 items as players level up the pass.

Every global region will soon vote for a unique item like sprays, gun buddies, and titles that best reflects that region. The top voted accessories will appear in an upcoming Community Battle pass in Episode 4.

Player Cards in YR1 Anniversary

The Valorant community will have an opportunity to collect three limited edition YR1 Player Cards. The way to collect them is unique, and it starts on June 6.

Each one will celebrate the first three Episodes. Episode 1 will come via a drop on June 9. Then Episode 2’s player card will come via a Prime Gaming Drop on June 14. Riot will include Episode 3’s card in the YR1 Event Pass.

Give Back Bundle

Valorant players are going to help contribute to the Riot Games Social Impact Fund. This is in partnership with Impact Assets and they will use the Give Back Bundle.

This weapon skin bundle will have four cosmetics. One each for sidearms, SMGs/shotguns, sniper/machine gun, and rifles. The Valorant community will chose these weapons.
