It has been five years since Riot revealed their intentions to enter the MMO space but little to no information on the project was revealed at the time. Fast-forward five years, the co-founder of the project has shared an update that might break the hearts of fans eagerly waiting for the same.
Marc Merrill, a co-founder of the project, has now spoken out about the project which did not leave a good impression on the fans. While other projects like Valorant have taken off, their MMO has been lagging.
“We’ve been investing so much for so long,” said Merrill, “Sort of growing this world and adding dimensions. People want to run around the world of Runeterra. And so we want to help them do that, in ways that are worth it and meaningful to them,” he added.
While it is clear that the Riot has not given up on the project it is clear that we are years away from an MMO. Merrill’s claims that the groundwork has been laid, but shaping it into a game will take years of work.
