Does it ever happen that when you launch Valorant, you fail to connect to the game servers, or the game is not launching? This might be due to when the Valorant servers are taken down for maintenance service, or there might be some issue with the servers. Though it is pretty rare for players to face this issue while playing the game, it can sometimes be frustrating.
Usually, the Valorant servers are taken down for maintenance during a new update, and the game's developers inform the players of the maintenance time. And sometimes, the servers go down due to technical issues as well; during this period, there are a few sources where you can head to check if it's an issue from the game servers or your internet issue.
Here is how you can know if the Valorant servers are down and the server downtime and uptime:
