Riot’s tactical shooter VALORANT attracts thousands of players daily. But just like any multiplayer title, server issues are inevitable.

VALORANT fans may be experiencing several errors, including the infamous error code 43. Riot is communicative in how it handles these issues, explaining exactly what the devs are doing to manage the madness.

Here’s how to check on the status of VALORANT’s servers.

We're aware of service outages affecting games of VALORANT (among other things). We're working with partners to resolve as soon as possible.

A player’s best bet is to check the VALORANT Twitter account, which has been updating fans regularly on the game’s status.

VALORANT is also featured on the Riot Games Service Status page. Updates for all of the company’s titles, like League of Legends and Legends of Runeterra, are both found on the Service Status page. Any errors are usually accompanied by a timestamp for when they began and sometimes include a time frame for when the servers will be up and running.

And fans who are receiving pesky error messages can check out VALORANT’s support page. There, players can see a list of errors, their meaning, and ways to potentially solve the issue.

Riot also has a VALORANT support section on its website with urgent notifications at the top.
