Before a new update is implemented in video games, some developers first test it out on their game\u2019s public beta environment or PBE. This helps devs know what to improve based on the feedback by players who can access it before the content makes its way to public servers.<\/p>
VALORANT<\/em> is no stranger to that concept. The 2020 breakout FPS title by Riot Games allows a limited number of players to try and test the different content, features, and even gameplay mechanics before Riot puts it out on the actual game patch.<\/p>
To become a VALORANT<\/em> PBE tester, you have to be from the North American (NA) region. Players outside of NA won\u2019t be allowed to be a part of it. The players also cannot have any bans or restrictions on their official VALORANT <\/em>accounts to be able to participate in the PBE.<\/p>
Assuming you are eligible to be a part of the VALORANT<\/em> PBE, head to the official PBE program website<\/a> of the game and log in to your NA Riot account. There will be sign-up questions you need to answer, but once done, you can then download the official VALORANT<\/em> PBE client.<\/p>
