This issue may occur because VALORANT has some restrictions and checks in place that might be conflicted by using a VPN. Here are some steps that could help: 1. Choose a Different VPN Server: Try connecting to a different server location on your VPN. Some VPN servers might be flagged by Riot and could cause connection issues. 2. Split Tunneling: If your VPN supports split tunneling, configure it so that only voice chat traffic goes through the VPN while the game traffic does not. 3. Update or Re-install VPN Client: Make sure your VPN client is up to date. Re-installing sometimes resolves conflicts. 4. Check Firewall/Antivirus Settings: Ensure that your firewall or antivirus software is not blocking the connection when using a VPN. 5. Contact VPN Support: If the issue persists, contacting your VPN provider's support might give specific instructions or known server recommendations for bypassing regional restrictions without blocking game connectivity. You might also want to check out Riot’s support page for further assistance: Riot Games Support.
