After over five years of relentless demand from the community, Riot Games has finally added a replay system to Valorant with the game’s 11.06 update. While the overall functionality of this newly-added replay system is fairly intuitive, a lot of players are getting confused about the location where the replay files are saved.
For the uninitiated, the long-awaited Valorant replay system enables players to check out their match replays and analyze them from different perspectives, but there’s a catch. Players are only allowed to check replays of their own games within the current patch, which means that you won’t be able to watch match recaps of your favorite pro or check out replays from a different patch.
Despite these drawbacks, the Valorant replay system is still an incredibly useful tool, whether you’re trying to improve your gameplay by analyzing your matches or just looking to make some highlight reels of your craziest flickshots.
How To Watch Replays in Valorant?
Before we get to the Valorant replay file location, it’s important to know how to watch your own match replays in the first place.
To watch your full match replays in Valorant, simply follow these steps:
- Play at least one game in the current patch.
- Head to your ‘Career’ page.
- Go to the ‘Match History’ section.
- Click on the game that you wish to watch.
- Hit the download button located on the page.
Now all you need to do is wait for the download to finish and press play.
Valorant Replay File Location
Now that you’re aware of how to watch replays in Valorant, you should also learn where your replay files are saved.
To find your Valorant replay files, all you need to do is head over to the following folder:
C:\\Users\USER\AppData\Local\VALORANT\Saved\DemosOnce there, you’ll be able to see a list of your saved Valorant replays.
Note that it’s not possible to export the Valorant replay files in a video format at the time of writing.
