Can You Rebind Controls in Valorant on Consoles?

Yes, you can rebind controls in Valorant while playing on consoles. You can also rebind specific presets this way.

Valorant does not have crossplay support with the PC version for obvious balance reasons, but Xbox and PlayStation players can easily play with each other. The game has cross-progression support regardless of the platform.

The complete controls for Valorant on consoles are specifically tailored for the controller experience, and we really appreciate the customizability and the added presets.
