Hey all - We know many of you are hungry for news about the @riotgames #MMO project, and we really appreciate your patience and the incredible support you've shown us so far. I’m writing to update you today on where we’re at. And before anyone panics: yes, we are still working on the game. #Leagueoflegends
After a lot of reflection and discussion, we've decided to reset the direction of the project some time ago. This decision wasn't easy, but it was necessary. The initial vision just wasn’t different enough from what you can play today. We don’t believe you all want an MMO that you’ve played before with a Runeterra coat of paint; to truly do justice to the potential of Runeterra and to meet the incredibly high expectations of players around the world, we need to do something that truly feels like a significant evolution of the genre. This is a huge challenge, but one that our team of deeply passionate MMO players and game development veterans is incredibly motivated to pursue
@MarcMerrill @riotgames Greetings brother, greatness takes time. And the story of Runeterra deserves a careful hand of development, we support your decision and know that Riot’s continued investment in the MMO is a testament to the future of the genre. Wishing your team the best, #LetThemCook -Steven
@MarcMerrill @riotgames So it is announced in 2020 and resetting in 2024. Wen release? 2030?
@MarcMerrill @riotgames I guess this is why ghostcrawler left to do his own thing
