MMO from Riot Games Remains in Development

Riot Games' co-founder, Marc Merrill, recently shared his vision for the future at the DICE Summit. A significant focus is the development of a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game situated within the rich worlds of League of Legends and Arcane.

Merrill acknowledged the considerable time investment in this ambitious MMO project, highlighting his personal passion for the genre as a key driver for its potential success. He also emphasized the strong desire among League of Legends players for deeper immersion within their beloved universe.

While details remain scarce, including a release date, Merrill playfully suggested a launch before humanity's first Martian landing. The feasibility of this prediction remains uncertain.

It's important to remember that another League of Legends-based game, 2XKO—a fighting game eagerly anticipated by fans—is also in development. Unlike the MMO, 2XKO boasts trailers and a projected release date before the year's end.
