LoL: Riot Games 10th Anniversary Event, new game announcements

Well, the League of Legends anniversary event certainly lived up to the hype, and more!

Here's a summary of everything that was announced!

Senna, and other League of Legends news

  • Already known to the LoL community as Lucian's wife, Senna will be the next champion introduced. Freed from Thresh's lantern, she will join Summoner's Rift as a Support Marksman. She comes to the PBE on October 29, and all being good will hit the live servers on November 10.
  • Beginning October 22 on the PBE, players will discover a radically altered Summoner's Rift. Entitled "Rise of the Elements", the changes are inspired by the elemental dragons — one of the more dynamic aspects of the Rift — and will drastically affect gameplay and strategy. These changes should hit the live servers on November 20.
  • In addition, all Riot products will eventually be available in Arabic for MENA players.
  • On October 15, Riot will release a series of nine albums on popular music streaming services, containing the music for each season of League of Legends.

  • Every three or four months, a new set of champions will be available in the game, changing the meta completely. 
  • Set 2 is called Rise of the Elements, and will include elemental-inspired content. This will be available from November 5.

The 10th anniversary evening of League of Legends was the scene of many announcements about all Riot Games games. Teamfight Tactics is not to be outdone and it has been officialized that a new set of champions and items will arrive on November 5th — called the Rise of the Elements.

Teamfight Tactics comes to mobile in early 2020!

The announcements came thick and fast during Riot Games' 10th anniversary event — and among them came the confirmation of the mobile port of Teamfight Tactics, coming in the first quarter of 2020.

League of Legends: Wild Rift

This new title will come to both mobile and consoles in 2020. Pre-registration is already possible on the Google Play Store. 

This 5v5 MOBA is essentially League of Legends, but with several optimisations for mobile platforms. Wild Rift will be based around a dual-joystick type of control scheme, and will feature a Rift redesigned for 10-15 minute games. 

It's important to note that this is not an altered port of the core League of Legends game — it looks like League and plays like League, but has been built from the ground up. It is also not clear just which consoles it will be available on.

Riot Games announces Wild Rift, a League of Legends mobile port!

As part of their 10th anniversary celebrations, Riot Games confirmed the rumoured mobile port of League of Legends.

Project A

Currently in development for more than three years now, Project A is described as a tactical shooter not based in the world of League of Legends.

Set in a near-future Earth, you will need exceptional FPS skills to defeat your opponents. 

More information will be revealed about this project in 2020.

Project A, the new competitive FPS from Riot Games

League 10 has provided yet another new game announcement from Riot Games — this time Project A, a first-person shooter (FPS), not set in the League of Legends universe.

Project F

This third project appears to be an RPG or MMO game of some sort, and will allow players to discover Runeterra with friends. 

Only a brief glimpse was shown, and no information was revealed during the presentation.

Did Riot Games show off an MMO during their 10th anniversary event?

During the League of Legends 10-year anniversary event, Riot Games announced that they were working on a game called "Project F", one that will allow players to "explore the world of Runeterra with their friends".

Legends of Runeterra, the League of Legends collectible card game

Riot Games have decided to throw their hat into the ring when it comes to appealing to players of strategic card games.

This free-to-play game will take place in the League of Legends universe, and its champions assume the roles of master cards. 

LoR's gameplay is built around a variety of dynamic battles that require players to use their talents, creativity and ingenuity to triumph.

The game will give players multiple ways to acquire cards — they can either get them free, or buy them with both premium and in-game currency.

Legends of Runeterra will be available in 2020 on PC and mobile, and pre-registration is already possible.

Arcane — an animated series set in the League of Legends universe

Developed and produced by Riot Games, Arcane is a new animated series that will tell stories of Runeterra, coming in 2020. 

In an utopian Piltover and the opaque, subterranean Zaun, Arcane revisits the origins of two of League of Legends' most iconic champions — and the force that separates them.

Something Riot Games were proud to announce was the creation of the Riot Games Social Impact Fund, a charitable foundation dedicated to fostering a positive global social impact. 

Riot revealed that the program had already raised more than $4 million for various charities, many of which were chosen by players of League of Legends. 

As part of this, they revealed a brand new skin — Dawnbringer Karma — with 100% of the proceeds benefitting the fund.
