Riot Games made a notable appearance at this year's DICE Summit, where co-founder Marc Merrill shared exciting updates in a post-event discussion with Stephen Totilo. Merrill expressed his enthusiasm for a major upcoming project: an MMO set within the expansive universe of League of Legends and Arcane. His passion for the MMO genre fuels much of his current focus, as he believes this dedication, combined with the deep engagement of League of Legends fans, will contribute significantly to the game's success.
While specifics about the MMO, such as a release date, were not disclosed, Merrill humorously remarked that he hopes it will launch before humans set foot on Mars. This light-hearted comment leaves fans eagerly anticipating more concrete details in the future.
In addition to the MMO, Riot Games is also developing another game within the League of Legends universe—2XKO, a fighting game that has been eagerly awaited by fans. Unlike the MMO, 2XKO has already released trailers and has a confirmed release window, set for before the end of the year, providing fans with something to look forward to in the near term.
