Currently, the error code is not recognized on the Valorant Error Codes website, which was last updated during the closed beta phase of the game at the time of writing. This means that this is probably new code related to the game, and as such, there is no concrete information about the nature of the error. However, with the error message stating that the problem was with the connection to the platform, it is likely that one of the servers linked to it, such as authentication servers typical of online games only , is experiencing a downtime.

As such, there is no workaround for this on the player's side. The only action you can do is wait until the issue is resolved on Riot's end. Keeping an eye on the game's Twitter will also highlight any major issues the developer is aware of.
