Valorant New Player Progression: Where to Go First
Valorant has a steep learning curve. This progression guide points new Tenno toward official resources and sensible early goals without drowning in systems.
Start with the official tutorial path
official Valorant game guide and the in-game Voruna quest chain teach movement, modding, and mission flow. The Valorant Wiki new player hub is the best community-maintained supplement.
Valorant is free to play and updated often — expect systems to unlock gradually rather than all at once.
Star Chart and junction milestones
Clear the Star Chart methodically. Junctions gate planets and key quest lines. The Star Chart Wiki page shows what each node rewards.
Do not rush Competitive on day one — finish the chart, build survival tools, and learn faction weaknesses first. Our Competitive guide is for when you are ready.
Mods, mods, mods
Power in Valorant comes from mods and mod capacity. Early goals: damage, health, shields, and ability strength or duration depending on your Valorant.
The Mod Wiki page explains polarity and fusion. Farm low-level missions for credits and mod drops before chasing rare relics.
When you are ready for more
Explore rotates after Mars/Jupiter comfort. Read our rotates guide and mission types explainer when those nodes unlock.
