VALORANT agents can be unlocked using in-game currency known as Kingdom Credits. These can be obtained by playing matches and completing Daily Missions. Each agent costs a total of 8,000 Kingdom Credits, so be prepared to grind.
Here is a step-by-step process on how to redeem Kingdom Credits for Agents in VALORANT:
- Obtain Kingdom Credits by playing matches and completing Daily Missions
- Earn 8,000 Kingdom Credits
- Go to Collections
- Click the agent you want to unlock and redeem with Kingdom Credits
- Repeat the process, buying each agent one by one
It’s also worth noting that you can only store up to 10,000 Kingdom Credits at once, so make sure you spend them before diving back into the action.

Agent Recruitment Events start the day a new agent is released and, for an entire month, players can grind to earn XP that eventually unlocks the agent for free. Once again, this can be earned by doing the following:
- Obtain XP by playing matches and completing Daily Missions during the Agent Recruitment Events
- Earn entirely new agents by doing so
These will be redeemed automatically, so don't stress about claiming anything. While earning Agent Recruitment progress and XP, you’ll also earn Kingdom Credits that can be used toward items in the Agent Store, Agent Gear, and Accessory Store. A win-win!
