How to fix the VAN 68 error in VALORANT

Players just can’t catch a break.

Another day, another VALORANT error code.

Error code 68 has seemingly cropped up out of nowhere, disconnecting players from matches and locking them out of the game completely. It’s one of the most irritating error codes and only serves as a nuisance. But unlike some error codes, it’s easy to fix.

Just like with VAN 84 in VALORANT, the VAN 64 Error code emerges when the game is experiencing server connection issues, something largely out of your control. Cloudflare, the DDoS protection provider behind VALORANT, is usually the real culprit.

When this code appears, it’s on the Riot Games or server side, so there isn’t really anything you can do to fix it but wait. If you check social media, you might see other players are getting it and a host of other error codes, depending on your region.

If it doesn’t seem like a mass issue, though, you should be able to fix the VAN 64 error by closing your client and restarting your game. For whatever reason, this snaps VALORANT back into action. There’s a chance the error code will return, but at the moment, this is your only real option.

If this doesn’t work and you’re stuck on square one, there’s a slim chance that switching off your computer and restarting your router will fix the issue.
