Riot has appointed a person to communicate with the community for the new game Project L. The release is coming?
Riot appoints a new person to communicate with players. He answered a few questions from the community.
Project L is another Riot’s game that the developers have been working on for a good few years. The first mention of the fact that the new title is being created was made in October 2019, and from time to time developers release more information.
This time, those interested in the production found out that a new person had been appointed to deal with communication with the community. She immediately answered some interesting questions.
Is Project L coming?
At the beginning, it’s worth remembering what Project L actually is. It’s a 2D fighting game created by Riot Games. Characters from the League of Legends world will be available in it, and each of them will be able to use their weapons or skills. Here’s what the latest gameplay from six months ago looks like:
It is now known that communication with the community will be handled by Ben Forbes. Until now, he has played a similar role in Wild Rift.
I’m super thrilled to announce I’ll be joining Project L to lead the global community strategy for Riot’s upcoming 2D fighter. Project L is a game that will need a strong community foundation to support the FGC, and I’m so excited to work with the devs to bring it to life!
Forbes also added a short progress animation to his post. The novelty is an interesting fight between as many as 3 shifting heroes:
If Riot wants to make its community more lively, does that mean the game will be released soon? It turns out that it is not. Developers want to have a big advantage at the start, so now Riot focuses on hype so that the game will start immediately with a large player base. This tactic was used with other Riot’s games like Wild Rift, TFT, or Valorant.
In the next statement, he recalled that there are two more major information updates waiting for players this year. The first one should appear soon.
When will it happen? It is not known at the moment, but there is little time until the end of the first half of 2022, and this reduces the waiting time.
