For those who don’t know, resolution scale is how many pixels are used in rendering the game world. Using it instead of direct resolution changes makes text and other UI elements far clearer.

Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Set your in-game resolution to native.
  2. Close VALORANT.
  3. Open the run dialog. (Win+R)
  4. Type %localappdata%/VALORANT/Saved/Config and press enter.
  5. Open Windows and then open RiotLocalClient.ini with Notepad. (Right-click > Edit)
  6. Note the second line. You need the long 36-character string of text. (called a UUID)
  7. Close Notepad.
  8. Go up a directory back to Config.
  9. Open the folder named with the text you noted earlier.
  10. Open Windows and then open GameUserSettings.ini with Notepad.
  11. Go to the 37th line (its starts with sg.ResolutionQuality).
  12. Change the 100.00 to whatever scaling percentage you like.
  13. Press Ctrl+S or File > Save.
  14. Open VALORANT, and test your changes.
