League of Legends is coming to mobile and console as The Wild Rift

Riot Games has announced a mobile and console version of League of Legends called The Wild Rift during their League 10 anniversary celebration.

League of Legends mobile has been teased for years, and asked for by the community for even longer, and now their dreams have been realised with the release of The Wild Rift.

The Wild Rift is not just a clone of League of Legends on PC, with entirely new mechanics being included. This means that crossplay is unlikely, but now players will be able to take their LoL experiences wherever they go on their phones.

The Wild Rift will not feature all champions and skins, but it will include a whole new champion showcase system and updated graphics. 

The Wild Rift will have closed Alpha’s and Beta’s nearing the end of this year in major regions, with a full release across all regions expected for late 2020.

More to come…
