What Is the Combat Report?

The combat report is a detailed panel that appears after you die or at the end of each round.

It provides a breakdown of:

• Who damaged or killed you
• Weapons and abilities used
• Damage dealt and received
• Hit locations (head, body, legs)
• Utility effectiveness (such as flashes, smokes, or other abilities used)

This information helps you understand your engagements and make tactical adjustments.

How to Show or Hide the Combat Report

By Default: 

The combat report automatically appears on the right side of your screen after you die or when a round ends. Following recent updates, the combat report is now also visible by default during the Buy Phase.

Manually Toggle the Combat Report:

Press the ‘N’ key (default) while in-game to show or hide the combat report at any time. You can rebind this key by going to: Settings > Controls > Interface > Combat Report.2

For Console Players:

The combat report will appear during certain phases and cannot be hidden until the pre-round phase ends.

What If the Combat Report Doesn’t Show Up?

If your combat report is missing or not displaying correctly, try these steps:

• Restart the game and client
• Update your graphics drivers
• Verify the integrity of your game files via the Riot Client
• Adjust graphics settings if necessary
• Reinstall Valorant as a last resort
