League of Legends has a rich and ever-expanding mythology, from spin off titles to hit TV shows like Netflix's Arcane, it feels like every character in said universe has a story to tell. Part of what made the thought of a Riot developed shooter exciting was that, unlike other spinoffs, it would introduce a whole new cast of characters independent from the iconic League roster. The most interesting project was undoubtedly Project A, a new tactical shooter that set out to mesh the best of what games like CSGO and Overwatch had to offer. First came Teamfight Tactics, their take on Dota Auto Chess, then a mobile League of Legends version, Wild Rift, and even a card game, Legends of Runeterra. As the 10th anniversary of their MOBA came close, the developers decided to branch out.Īs part of their aggressive expansion (no bonus points for getting that reference), Riot unveiled an overload of new projects in 2019, most based on characters from their LoL universe. Riot Games had been known in the gaming industry as the creators of League of Legends, the incredibly successful riff on DOTA 2, for well over a decade. Riot Games' tactical shooter Project A was confirmed as Valorant and released to the world in June 2020.
