How to Turn On Streamer Mode in Valorant

Unknown to many avid Valorant players out there, the competitive shooter by Riot allows players to enable streamer mode to protect their privacy in-game. While it’s especially useful for bigger streamers and content creators out there to prevent stream sniping and targeted queuing, anyone can choose to do it in order to maintain anonymity while playing Valorant.

While there isn’t a specific ‘Streamer Mode’ present in Valorant per se, players can enable a number of in-game features to help them remain anonymous in their games.

For instance, players can hide their name from others and enable generic names for players outside of their party. These options can be enabled from the general tab in the settings menu.

Once these settings have been enabled, players outside of your party will see your name as the Agent that you use in that game.

For instance, if you pick Sage in a particular game, players outside of your party will see your name as ‘Sage’ instead of your Riot nickname. Similarly, for the second setting, you’ll see Agent names for other players.

Do keep in mind that these settings don’t take effect if enabled in the middle of a game. Make sure to enable these options before you queue for a game for them to work properly.
