Riot Introduces League of Legends: Wild Rift, a New Mobile and Console Game
Riot recently celebrated its 10th anniversary and made a big announcement during the event. They revealed their upcoming game, League of Legends: Wild Rift, which is set to release by the end of 2020. This game will provide players with a fresh perspective on Summoner’s Rift.
Hints from Riot’s Website Suggest Cross-Platform Availability
There has been a lot of speculation about Wild Rift, particularly from console players. While Riot has confirmed that the game will be available on both mobile and console, they have remained tight-lipped about other details. However, a little digging on Riot’s website has provided fans with some hints. Multiple job listings on the website mention PS4, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch, focusing on software engineering and cross-platform console games. This suggests that Wild Rift may be released on these platforms as well.
Release Plans for Wild Rift
It is possible that Wild Rift will be released on PS4 and Xbox before the Switch, following a similar pattern to Overwatch. However, there is no concrete evidence to support this theory. Regardless, Riot has confirmed that Wild Rift will first roll out on iOS and Android platforms in 2020, with console releases planned for later in the year.
