Riot Games’Valorantoffers players the ability to hold their weapons in either of the hands of the Agents. The default orientation features right-handed handling of weapons, abilities, and ordinances. However, players do have the option to opt for the left-handed view as well.
Whether this leads to any improvements in gameplay or not, is up for debate but it’s nice to have the choice in Valorant nonetheless. Anyway, if you’re willing to give the left-handed view a go, here’s how to switch to left-hand inValorant:
That’s all you have to do in order to hold the weapons in the left hand instead. you’re able to also switch hands during a match by heading to Settings and following the above steps.
The right-hand orientation has been around in shooter games for so long, that even to a completely left-handed person such as myself, the idea just felt off when I tried it inValorantandCounter-Strike. It is perhaps just down to what we have practised with and are familiar with, just like how we left-handed folks are used to having the mouse on the right in PC setups.
So, if the orientation seems natural, that’s great, but you’re able to always go back to the right-handed mode. Just follow the same steps listed above and choose Right in the “First Person Handedness” section.
