How to get Game Pass benefits for Valorant

Game Pass is arguably the most popular gaming subscription. Microsoft gives gamers one of the best deals in all of gaming by letting them play a bunch of games by simply subscribing to Game Pass. For those who don’t know what Game Pass is, the best way we can explain it is by calling it Netflix but for games.

While the subscription service has a bunch of games to play, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way for players to benefit from downloading free-to-play games from there either. A case in point is Valorant, which gives players a bunch of benefits for linking their Riot Account with their Microsoft account while having a Game Pass subscription.

Today, we’re here to go through the steps to follow so Valorant players can get Game Pass benefits, alongside the various advantages of doing so.

What benefits will Xbox Game Pass members get in Valorant?

Riot Games shares that players who subscribe to the Xbox Game Pass will receive various benefits in the game. 

Access to every agent

Every character in the game will be available for the player, so they won't have to grind to unlock agents to use them in multiplayer game modes. Members will also unlock every new agent on the day they launch.

XP boosters

Game Pass subscribers will also receive a 20% Match XP boost. This boost will apply to the Battle Pass as well as event content.

These perks aren’t exclusive to Xbox players since they apply to the account directly. This means that as long as the player connects their Riot account with an Xbox account with Game Pass, they can unlock these benefits on different platforms, such as PC and PlayStation 5, on the same account.
