VALORANT does not provide fixes for every type of error in the game. Unfortunately, Error Code 61 is one of those errors.

VALORANT does not directly guide you on how to fix the error codes shown in the game. Rather, the client just shows you a message with numerical values. Every Error Code has a numeric value ranging from 0 to 152, and each of the codes has a different connotation and reason behind the cause of the issue that you are facing.

One of the unique error codes is Error Code 61. Many of you might have faced Error Code 61 without even knowing what it is, what it does, and how to fix it. So, in this article, we will be diving into detail about VALORANT Error code 61.
