Riot Games' co-founder, Marc Merrill, recently shared his vision for the future at the DICE Summit. A significant focus is the development of a massively multiplayer online (MMO) game situated within the rich worlds of League of Legends and Arcane.
Merrill acknowledged the MMO's demanding nature, consuming a substantial portion of his time. His passion for the MMO genre, coupled with the immense desire among League of Legends players for deeper immersion in their beloved universe, are key elements he believes will contribute to the game's potential success.
While specifics remain under wraps, including a release date, Merrill playfully suggested a launch before humanity's first Martian landing. The feasibility of this prediction remains uncertain.
It's important to note that another League of Legends-based game, 2XKO – a fighting game eagerly anticipated by fans – is also in development. Unlike the MMO, 2XKO boasts trailers and a projected release date before the year's end.
