How to fix the version mismatch error in Valorant
If the version mismatch error is due to your outdated game client, updating it will resolve the issue. But, sometimes, there may not be an update or a patch to install, and the game client may still show the same version mismatch error.
It may be due to two reasons: either the update has not been made available to your region while they have updated the main game server, or you have a faulty install on your system. If it is due to the former problem, there is nothing you can do. You have to wait for Riot Games to launch the patch according to their scheduled regional time. For the latter concern,uninstall the game and reinstall iton a different drive from the previous one.
