Find Ignition Player Card in the Inventory

Valorant was launched on June 2, 2020. The first episode of the game was called Ignition.

Since its release last year, Valorant has rapidly grown into one of the most popular FPS games in the world. Riot Games recently revealed that the game currently averages 14 million monthly players.

The competitive scenario of the game has experienced huge success as well. Many former CS: GO, Overwatch, and other professionals switched to Valorant this year to explore opportunities. The game got its first international LAN event in Iceland just a few weeks ago. Top teams from around the globe faced each other, where Sentinels were crowned champions.

After getting a massive amount of love from the fans, the developers want to return the appreciation with in-game rewards to the Valorant players as part of the YR1 event. The developers revealed that,

"Throughout the month of June, the Valorant community will receive commemorative digital swag, including a redeemable player card and a free event pass, to mark the occasion."
