The error is showing everytime you attempt to boot up the sport, greeting you with a display screen that reads: “Connection error. VALORANT has encountered a connection error. Please relaunch the shopper to reconnect.” Sadly, even for those who shut down the shopper and take a look at once more, you’ll be met with the identical drawback.

Even worse, it’s not clear what’s inflicting this problem proper now, as Riot has but to touch upon it to substantiate that they’re conscious of it or engaged on a repair. Hypothesis is working rife that it may very well be linked to VALORANT‘s Vanguard anti-cheat system, however that is unconfirmed.

Thus far, it’s been radio silence from Roit, with nothing on their official X account in regards to the outage. Even their official server standing web page fails to say the issue, leaving us all at the hours of darkness about what’s happening.

Unsurprisingly, social media is crammed with sad VALORANT gamers asking the developer what’s happening, and pleading for them to repair the issue. It’s not simply the FPS that’s affected both, with League of Legends gamers additionally complaining on X in regards to the VAN 84 error.
