We know Riot Games is remaking League of Legends in 2027, but the 16-year-old MOBA is also getting a nostalgic throwback 'Classic' release, and now we have a release date for it. Read more
League of Legends' 'classic' mode has a release date, and it isn't just an old version of the gameβplayers will vote on new patches, Old School RuneScape-style
What's old is new in League of Legends Classic, which was teased a couple of weeks ago in the wake of leak after leak. The full reveal came during yesterday's MSI Finals, where the mode debuted in a showmatch starring pros like Doublelift and Cpt Jack. It's a Frankenstein's monster of different eras with a huge emphasi...
League of Legends Classic isn't the launch experience, it's a "greatest hits" of the early years
Riot Games has finally lifted the lid on League of Legends Classic as promised, and my big takeaway is that this isn't just a transportation back in time to 2009, but rather a greatest hits collection of its first few seasons. That said, there are certainly a lot of the fundamentals of that initial experience [...]
Riot believes League of Legends 'mage bot' strats are "healthy diversity" and "need to be viable"
Riot Games has pulled planned Brand buffs from the upcoming League of Legends patch 26.14 due to "concerns around mages bot," but says it's still committed to supporting the divisive strategy as a viable way to play the MOBA. In a preview post covering the new update, Lead Gameplay Designer Matt 'Phroxzon' Leung-Harris...
Another self-own for Sony: Marvel TΕkon's PC version is unavailable in over 100 countries thanks to our old friend PSN again
Remember how Sony sneakily added a PSN account requirement to Helldivers 2 after launch, thereby making it unplayable in the long list countries PSN still hasn't been rolled out to? And then Sony region-restricted a bunch of PC ports in those same countries, like God of War Ragnarok, Spider-Man 2, Ghost of Tsushima, an...

Heroes of the Storm esports is back, but it's just for one day
Not a day goes by without me lamenting the death of Heroes of the Storm. While League of Legends will always be the premier MOBA, HoTS took all of my favorite games and smushed them into one, perfect place. It's a game that I have far too many fond memories of; I used to be an absolute beast on Sylvanas Windrunner, but...
Riot delays 'last hit indicators' in League of Legends ranked mode after fan response: 'We want to get more data and feedback'
Once you've lost a few thousand hours to a MOBA, it's easy to forget how hard it was to learn. A game like League of Legends has well over a hundred playable characters, all sorts of items and jungle monsters, and even the basics can be fussy. One of the most crucial is the zen practice of "last hitting," or swinging a...
League of Legends Classic is real: "This was the right time"
League of Legends Classic is official. We weren't really supposed to know yet, but Riot Games had a bit of a slip-up and accidentally leaked a significant enough chunk of it onto the PBE that it was impossible to keep pretending. Instead, the developer did the best thing it possibly could: embrace the meme, and drop an...

League of Legends developer Riot Games is officially teasing a "classic" game mode based on older versions of the long-running MOBA. The legacy version of League of Legends will likely be similar to classic servers offered by games such as World of Warcraft.
Riot walks back putting League of Legends' controversial 'last hit indicators' into ranked play, for now
It's been a whirlwind few hours for League of Legends, with Riot Games announcing that its most controversial player assist tool was about to be implemented in ranked play, only for them to rapidly reverse the decision in response to public outcry. The 'last hit indicator' system, which clearly marks when minions are w...
Riot went a bit "out there" with some of League of Legends' recent champions. Locke is a welcome return to what players "want."
Locke straddles two worlds; literally. He's an exorcist with a keen knowledge of the occult; someone who exists in both the material plane and a spiritual realm beyond our own. But he also does so in terms of design: his kit, while hyper-mobile, plays like a traditional assassin, reliant on a strong early game and skil...
