Riot Games' MMO: Far from Finished

Riot Games made a notable appearance at this year's DICE Summit, where co-founder Marc Merrill shared exciting insights in a post-event discussion with Stephen Totilo. One of Merrill's primary ambitions is to launch a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game set in the expansive universe of League of Legends and the acclaimed series Arcane. This project has captured much of his focus, driven by his passion for the MMO genre and a belief that his dedication will contribute significantly to its success. Additionally, the strong desire among League of Legends fans to deeply immerse themselves in their beloved universe is seen as a crucial factor for the game's potential triumph.

While Merrill remained tight-lipped about specific details of the MMO, including a release timeline, he humorously remarked that he hopes the game will be available before humans set foot on Mars. Whether this light-hearted prediction will come to fruition is something fans eagerly await.

In addition to the MMO, Riot Games is developing another game within the League of Legends universe: 2XKO, a fighting game that has been highly anticipated by fans. Unlike the MMO, 2XKO has already released trailers and has a confirmed release window, set to launch before the end of the year. This news has undoubtedly heightened the excitement among the gaming community.
