Their anti cheat is a kernel level driver and requires secure boot to make sure it loads before anything could potentially tamper with the system.

Doesn't it only require secure boot on Windows 11? For now you can get around that requirement by simply staying on Windows 10, until they retire support for that.

Yes, the mandatory TPM and secure boot only applies to Windows 11. I'm sure they're eager to drop Windows 10 support as soon as they're able to.

You are correct. Secure boot is not required to play valorant on windows 10.
