Ben Affleck Joins the VALORANT Hype Train and Shares His Esports Passion

Ben Affleck discusses his love for VALORANT on a recent esports stream.

In a delightful twist combining Hollywood with gaming, Ben Affleck recently appeared on Tarik’s popular stream, where he joined forces with Rob Moore, CEO of Sentinels. The discussion centered around his enthusiasm for VALORANT, coinciding perfectly with the excitement of the VCT Americas. Who would have thought that Batman has a soft spot for competitive gaming?

Diving into the action during the stream, Affleck shared how his son introduced him to the game. It was clear from his words that he’s genuinely impressed:

He (Affleck’s son) got me into playing the game — and yet, I still look at this and think… It amazes me, you know?

When I play, I’m like, these guys have to be cheating. No one is this good. They just rock me immediately, you know what I mean? And yet, it’s pretty impressive to watch people do something that I’ve tried to do and see how good they are and organized…

The actor also recounted his experience attending a recent VALORANT event in Los Angeles. He described it as ‘great’ being part of a sold-out arena filled with esports players—something he noted even some traditional sports teams struggle to achieve.

It was really impressive. It brought it home to me how massive this whole state of affairs is.

A glimpse of Affleck enjoying himself at the VALORANT Champs tournament went viral after he was spotted by cameras eliciting cheers from fellow attendees, all while Elon Musk sat nearby receiving decidedly less fanfare.

The actor didn’t stop promoting his upcoming movie, The Accountant 2, cleverly linking it to the fast-paced nature of first-person shooters like VALORANT. Moore complimented him too, mentioning he had witnessed some commendable flicks from Affleck worthy of any VCT match-up.
