League of Legends MMO Development Reset
In a recent development, Riot Games has announced a significant change in direction for its highly anticipated League of Legends MMO, leading to a reset in the game's development process. This decision marks a departure from initial expectations set by the company's previous project, Valorant, which had a quick transition from announcement to release. The League of Legends MMO, first hinted at in 2019, has had a contrasting journey with a need for a more extended development timeline. The reset, as revealed by co-founder Marc Merrill, underscores Riot Games‘ commitment to delivering an MMO that stands apart in the genre and befits the rich Runeterran universe, even at the expense of a longer wait.
Riot Games intends to work diligently out of the public eye for the next few years to ensure the forthcoming MMO exceeds what fans are envisioning. Despite the potential disappointment from the long wait, the development team assures that this period of silence should be viewed as a positive sign of their dedication to quality. While the timeline for the League of Legends MMO's release remains uncertain, the team's pledge to create an extraordinary gaming experience remains at the forefront of this undertaking. The company extends gratitude to their supporters for their continued patience and support during this creative process.
