Valorant closed beta starts on April 7

Riot Games announced today that the closed beta for its upcoming PC team shooter Valorant will start on April 7.

To be eligible to participate in the test, players first need to link their Riot account with their Twitch one. Then they need to watch specific Valorant streams that will give out access to the closed beta. Usually, people just have to sign up for a beta test by submitting their email to a website or something, so this is a bit of a more creative (or maybe you could call it elaborate) process.
