‘League Of Legends’ MMO Coming Soon: What You Need To Know

“League of Legends” is hugely popular among gamers due to its fascinating characters, skillful gameplay and stunning designs. But despite its replayability and overall enjoyment factor, there are some who might not want to keep playing it over and over and are looking for something more.

Thankfully, Riot Games announced that it is working on a new game that players have been asking for: an MMO game set in the “League of Legends” universe.

Riot Games’ VP of IP and entertainment Greg Street said the game company is now hiring people to work on developing the “League” universe and is working on a “massive” game that “many Rioters … have been asking us to create.”

A netizen responded to Street’s tweet to ask if the new game is an MMO and if it’s possible to pick the character’s “clothes and hairstyle” in the new game. The Riot exec confirmed, “It is an MMO.”

Now, here’s what fans should know about the new and upcoming “League of Legends” MMO game.

It’s coming

First, it’s important to know that it’s coming. While Street’s announcement wasn’t made via a stellar online event or something like that, it’s coming from a company known for announcing projects and updates without much fanfare.

For example, as per Kotaku, the company’s “last round of game announcements were basically a bunch of shrugs and an admittance that, yeah, they were working on some stuff.”

The company is hiring for it

As per Street, Riot is looking for more people who can work on developing the “League” universe, likely for the upcoming game. The exec didn’t mention what kind of things the universe will include. He simply said they are working to “develop” it.

Unknown details

So far, that’s all there is to know about the new game. The exec didn’t give a potential release date. He didn’t mention potential storylines, characters and other details.

However, “League of Legends” features a diverse set of characters, all of them having interesting backstories and abilities. Fans can expect to see these, and perhaps more, in the massive game.
