Change Reset Valorant Password

Keeping your Riot Games and Valorant accounts secure is essential in today's digital age. One effective method to enhance security is by having a strong password and changing it periodically. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access or hacking attempts.

Sometimes, users might forget their passwords and require a reset. This article provides a comprehensive guide on how to change or reset your Valorant password, whether you remember your current one or not.

If you know your existing password

Launch the Riot Games client and navigate to the account security options in the upper right corner

To start, open the Riot Games client. In the upper right corner, you'll find the option for account security settings.

Enter your credentials when asked

You'll be prompted to input your username and password. Ensure that you enter them carefully to proceed.

Access the Riot Account Sign-in Area

In this section, you'll find the options needed to update your password. First, input your current password, then enter the new one. Your new password needs to meet several criteria for security: it must be at least 8 characters long, include both letters and non-letter characters, and have a strength rating of „Okay“ or better.

These measures are in place to help protect your account from unauthorized access.

I forgot my password – Steps to reset it

To recover a forgotten password in Valorant, start by navigating to the official Riot Account Recovery page. Enter your username, and follow the prompts to receive a password reset link. Make sure you have access to your registered email or a previously used email address. If not, you will need to submit a support ticket for further assistance.

Ways to secure your Valorant password

  1. Choose a Strong Password: Create a password that consists of a mix of numbers, special characters, and uppercase letters.
  2. Use a Password Manager: Save your passwords securely with a password manager.
  3. Keep Passwords Confidential: Never share your passwords. Remember, Riot employees will never request your password.
  4. Enable Two-Factor Authentication: Add an extra layer of security by turning on Two-Factor Authentication.

Taking these steps can help ensure your account remains secure and you can enjoy playing without worrying about unauthorized access.
