League of Legends: Wild Rift open beta comes to Europe next month

League of Legends: Wild Rift is finally heading to new territories. Riot's mobile and console focused take on League of Legends is entering Open Beta in Europe next month. 

Wild Rift was announced just over a year ago as a “redesigned 5v5 League of Legends MOBA” for consoles and mobile devices. In this version, matches are faster to complete and there is a new control system in place to make it friendly for touchscreens and gamepads.

League of Legends: Wild Rift will enter open beta in different regions on different dates. On the 7th of December, those in Oceania, Taiwan and Vietnam will get access, then on the 10th of December, the beta expands to Europe, the Middle East & North Africa, Russia & CIS, and Turkey.

All players in those locations will have full access to the game on Android and iOS. Currently, Wild Rift is already in regional open beta in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. In 2021, the game will also be made available in the Americas.

KitGuru Says: I'm looking forward to giving Wild Rift a try, particularly after enjoying some of Riot's other recent games like Runeterra and Valorant. Will any of you be giving this a go when the open beta arrives?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
