Riot Games made a notable appearance at this year's DICE Summit, where co-founder Marc Merrill shared insights into the company's future projects during a discussion with Stephen Totilo. One of Merrill's primary ambitions is to bring an MMO to life within the expansive universe of League of Legends and Arcane. This project is consuming much of his time, driven by his passion for the genre and his belief that this dedication is key to the game's potential success. Additionally, he recognizes the deep desire of League of Legends fans to fully immerse themselves in the beloved universe, which further fuels his commitment to the project.
While specific details about the MMO remain under wraps, including a release date, Merrill humorously expressed his hope that it would launch before humanity sets foot on Mars. Whether this playful prediction will come to fruition is yet to be seen.
In addition to the MMO, Riot Games is also developing another game set in the League of Legends universe, titled 2XKO. This eagerly awaited fighting game has already generated excitement with its trailers and a confirmed release window set for later this year, much to the delight of fans who have been anticipating its arrival for years.
