VALORANT Sick of your display name and tired of looking at it? So what's stopping you from changing it? In 2020, Riot Games moved from being the League of Legends company to a "multi-game" publisher, introducing VALORANT, Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, and Wild Rift to the world. That led the developer to rethink usernames and account systems and roll out some major changes. Instead of a separate account for each game, the developer switched to "Riot accounts." This single global account is all you need to log into any of Riot's games, including VALORANT. However, the name-change process in VALORANT isn't entirely identical to League of Legends or, for that matter, any other Riot game . You don't need to spend any in-game currency to change your name: the process is completely free. How do you change your VALORANT name? Let's take a look!
