FGC Consensus: 2XKO Is an Unfavorable Name—Superior Fan Suggestions Emerge

Introducing 2XKO: The New Name for Project L

Riot Games has officially named its highly anticipated game Project L as 2XKO, as part of their efforts to improve communication about the game’s development. However, the fighting game community (FGC) has not responded positively to the new name.

What Does 2XKO Stand For?

According to the development team, 2XKO is pronounced exactly as it is spelled, and it reflects the game’s emphasis on two-on-two combat. Despite this alignment, the wider FGC has criticized the name, comparing it to a fledgling crypto project and questioning its connection to a biological structural basis.
