VALORANT Patch Notes 11.02: Unreal Engine 5, Bug Fixes and More

Riot revealed the latest patch; this patch takes VALORANT from an older version of Unreal Engine to the latest Unreal Engine version. This patch also features more bug fixes. Here's all you need to know about VALORANT Patch 11.02

ALL PLATFORMS

ENGINE UPDATE

• Updated VALORANT game engine from Unreal Engine 4.27 to Unreal Engine 5.3. This has no direct implication on how you experience the game, apart from small performance improvements, but it adds a lot of value for the development team on improving the game in the future.
• This patch download size will be larger as we are updating the engine, but one of the benefits is that the VALORANT installation size will be half of the size on your disk. After this patch, download sizes will get back to normal.
• Updated the minimum system requirements for VALORANT, which can be found here.
