Play with Friends
I want to play with my friend who is on the ASIA servers but my account is an American account. Is there a way to play with him without completely switching my region or would I have to make a new account in that region? I would prefer not having to buy a VPN just to create an account for ASIA servers. We just want to play Unrated together.

Unfortunately, VALORANT accounts are locked to the region they are created in, meaning you can't change regions directly. To play with your friend on the Asia servers without purchasing a VPN, you'll need to create a new Riot account in that region. Here's a workaround:
1. Use a Free VPN: Temporarily use a free VPN that allows you to set your location to an Asian country. Create a new Riot account while connected to the VPN.
2. Log In and Play: After creating the account, you can log in and play without the VPN. Your region will be locked to Asia as long as the account was created with the VPN.
Remember, this method means starting fresh with a new account. If you ever want to revert, you'll need to log in with your original account to play on American servers.
