How to Enable 2FA in Valorant

Riot have added Multi-factor authentication to their titles. Here’s how to enable 2FA in Valorant.

Riot Games has finally announced that players can now activate 2 Factor Authentication for their Riot Accounts. This long-awaited feature is finally available. Keep in mind, once you enable 2FA on your Riot Account you’ll need to fill in a one-time code/OTP to login into Valorant or any other Riot game.

Unlike the usual 2FA, which is required once to login from an unknown device, Riot’s Multi-factor authentication system is activated every time someone tries to login into the game. Enabling 2FA is a simple and useful way to secure your account if you’ve bought any skins or paid for any in-game items. It provides players with an extra layer of security.
