With the release of Valorant patch 11.06 comes the implementation of a Replay system, one of the most highly requested features over the last five years. Put simply, it allows you to re-watch all the action that went down during a match after it happened.
Replays are now available on the PC version of Valorant in every region, excluding China. In China, Replays will roll out starting with Patch 11.07b on October 9, 2025. Console players will get the feature on November 11 or 12, 2025, depending on region.
Replay and rewind
Thanks to the Valorant Replay system, you can:
- Observe the game from all 10 players’ first-person perspectives.
- Enable/disable friendly/enemy player outlines, AKA “wall hacks”
- Enable/disable the ability to follow projectiles like Sova Recon Dart.
- Observe the game with a third-person free observer cam
- Fast-forward, slow down, and pause the game. (Speeds: .1x, .25x, .5x, 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x)
- Skip to each round of the game.
- Time-jump to anywhere in the game.
- You’ll also see small icons on the timeline to signify where kills, deaths, and ultimate ability usage took place.
- Show/hide the minimap and HUD.
- Open the combat report at any time
After completing a match, you’ll see a new icon to download the Replay file from the match details page or on your Career page. By clicking on the Replay icon, the Replay file will download and from there, you can load you into the Replay. The Replay functionality is available in Valorant for Unrated, Competitive, Swiftplay, and Premier game modes. However, Replays aren’t in custom games and you can only view games that have taken place on the current patch and beyond, not previous matches you might’ve played.
Elsewhere in Valorant patch 11.06 are bug fixes and competitive updates. The full patch notes can be viewed here.
