, the SVP and studio head of Valorant, Anna Donlon, revealed that Valorant will now move to Unreal Engine 5. Donlon explained that they have squeezed everything out of Unreal Engine 4 and that, to take things further, an upgrade is required. She said,

We have squeezed literally every ounce of everything we could get out of UE4, so now we make the move to UE5 and it is not an easy feat when your game is a live service game.

Donlon noted that the transition will not be easy, but it is necessary. Unreal Engine 5 is not only the latest version, but it will also allow developers at Riot Games to experiment with new ideas. She also hinted that this change might also help expand the Valorant universe into “new playable experiences.“

As per the player, the montage sequence from timestamp 2:29 has animations very similar to the current agent selection screen. One could tell that they are the same, but visually, the trailer version looks much better. As per the speculation, Unreal Engine 5 will add a new, better agent selection screen that will have graphics similar to what players saw in the trailer.

Even after four years, Valorant has been dominating the first-person shooter genre. The free-to-play game was released for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S this year and became an instant hit. Many live service video games are failing to meet the expectations nowadays, but it seems like Riot Games has cracked the code to maintain Valorant‘s longevity.
