When Does Valorant Act End? Current Act 6 Date

Season 2026 Act 6 of VALORANT ends on January 6, 2027. The act started on October 14, 2026, and the VALORANT wiki lists both dates on its Season 2026: Act 6 page. Use January 6, 2027 as the deadline when you plan your ranked time.

Updated November 13, 2026. This post is based on the Season 2026: Act 6 page on the VALORANT wiki, the VALORANT patch notes on playvalorant.com, and N1Boost's live starting prices from our order pages on that day.

When does Valorant act end: the current dates

The current act is Season 2026, Act 6. According to the wiki entry, it began on October 14, 2026 and ends on January 6, 2027. Those two dates are the ones to plan around, and they are the only dates this post relies on for the act.

The same wiki entry lists the patches for this season as v13.08, v13.09, and v13.10. Patch notes are published on playvalorant.com, and that is the first place to check if you want to confirm what changed in a given version. Read the notes on the day you play, because the client may have changed since you read this post.

Do not rely on a date you saw in a forum thread alone. If a thread gives a different end date, check the wiki entry and the patch notes before you change your plans. Our date comes from the wiki, so that is the page to compare against.

How the ranked calendar works

VALORANT groups its content into seasons, and each season is divided into acts. Season 2026 is the season in our sources, and Act 6 is the act that runs from October 14, 2026 to January 6, 2027. Think of the act as the window you have to climb, and the season as the larger block it sits inside.

The season's game additions include Hush, according to the same wiki entry. Game additions are new content that arrives in the game during the season, so check the in-game notes after each patch to see what is new to you.

Ranked progress depends on your games, not on the calendar alone. The act date tells you how long you have. It does not tell you how many games you need to reach a rank, so use your own numbers when you plan.

What to do before it ends

Start with a simple count. Write down your current rank, the number of days between today and January 6, 2027, and how many ranked sessions you can play each week. That turns a vague goal into a plan you can check.

If you are close to the rank you want, decide early whether you will push it yourself or stop. Players who wait until the final week often have less room to recover from a bad streak. Set a stop point, such as a rank or a set number of sessions, so you know when to stop.

Here is the order we suggest:

1. Note your current rank and the act end date, January 6, 2027.
2. Pick one target rank for this act, not three.
3. Play in blocks of a few sessions, then review your losses.
4. Check the patch notes before you queue after each new patch.

Keep a short log of your games. Note the agent, the map, and whether you won. After a week, you will see which habits cost you the most games, and you can fix one of them before the act ends.

If you are short on time or stuck on a rank, a boosting service is one option. The next section covers the choices we offer and what each one is for.
