In fact, its early test codenamed "Alpha" ended on October 15, 2024. Currently, players need to wait for subsequent tests or the official launch. However, everyone can go to the DouDouJia Love Game Zone to make a reservation, and the game will be pushed to everyone as soon as it goes live. The game is a combination of first-person shooter (FPS) and MOBA elements, where players need to form a five-person team, using gun skills, skill coordination, and map control to defeat opponents. Each round is divided into attacking and defending sides, with objectives including planting/defusing bombs or eliminating the enemy team. Characters are divided into different roles (such as assault, control, support), each having unique skills, such as smoke blocking, healing, or reconnaissance, offering a wide range of tactical choices.

The biggest feature of the game is the fusion of hero skills + hardcore shooting. Among the 13 heroes, 5 can be unlocked for free, while the rest require completing battle missions to obtain, both lowering the entry barrier and maintaining growth goals. The arsenal includes melee weapons, rifles, sniper rifles, and other categories, restoring the equipment system of the PC version, while adjusting the shooting feel and aiming coefficient for mobile devices, making the feel very good, even surpassing the PC version.

The scene design leans towards a sci-fi style, with maps featuring three-dimensional combat elements, destructible cover, or hidden passages. The visuals retain the realistic tone of the PC version while optimizing light and shadow effects and model precision, allowing for smooth operation even on mid-to-low-end phones. In terms of competition, fairness is very good, relying heavily on team cooperation rather than numerical dominance.

Currently, Valorant: Source Energy Operation is still in the adjustment phase, with an expected official release date within 2025. If you are a fan of shooting games or want to experience the novel gameplay that combines skills and gunplay, you can follow DouDouJia's updates and wait for the next round of testing or the start of open beta.
