Valorant, even with its default settings, is a fairly vibrant game. Something you wouldn’t normally expect from competitive first-person shooters. However, if you feel like the game’s settings aren’t up to mark for your colorful personality, then we will show you how to make Valorant more vibrant than it already is.
Best Color Settings for Valorant
There are multiple methods you can use to adjust the vibrance of not just Valorant, but every game you play on your PC. Keep in mind that these adjustments may not look good universally with every game you play. Therefore, you might have to make a few changes manually every time you switch games.
Does GeForce Game Filter Work on Valorant?
For a good amount of time, you could use the in-game Nvidia overlay to apply filters onto Valorant. However, with an update back in 2021, developers at Riot games decided that third-party applications like GeForce experience should not be able to apply visual effects to the game as it was providing an unfair competitive advantage to players utilizing the software.
There is still a method that you can use as an Nvidia user to adjust the saturation and vibrance for the game, detailed below.
How to Make Valorant More Vibrant with Nvidia
If you have an Nvidia card, then you’re going to want to start by opening the Nvidia control panel.
- Right-click the desktop and click on ‘Nvidia Control Panel’.

- Select the monitor you’ll be using as primary for Valorant.
- Before moving onto the next step, screenshot all of your settings if you want to revert back.
- Uncheck ‘Override to Reference Mode.’
- Select color channel to be “All channels.”
- We can make Valorant vibrant by increasing digital vibrance. Set it anywhere between 70 to 100 based on your preference.
- Adjust the hue to change colors along the path. By increasing hue to 60, red will appear yellow and other colors will change as well. You can change this as you like, but we like to see colors as it is.
- Each color can be changed individually by tweaking single channels.
- Change channels by selecting either Red, Green or Blue from ‘Color channel’ drop-down menu.
