Riot confirms League of Legends not coming to other platforms

Matthew Wilson March 19, 2015 Software & Gaming

Recently there has been some speculation surrounding League of Legends and its future other platforms, thanks to a recent partnership between Riot and Microsoft. However, the developer has now confirmed that there are no plans to bring League to other platforms.

In a statement sent to Gamespot, a Riot Games spokesperson said: “Today’s announcement mentioning League of Legends has generated a lot of speculation in the LoL player community. We’d like to clarify that our focus is on making sure League plays great on Mac and PC. No plans for console, mobile or other platforms at this time”.

Riot recently announced that it would be working with Microsoft, bringing League of Legends to the Windows 10 store, although the normal client will still be available. This is where the speculation began.

The deal meant that Microsoft would provide Riot with ‘additional resources’ for League of Legends maintenance as well as opportunities to launch new projects.

Additionally, other MOBA titles, like Smite are starting to appear on consoles, potentially opening the door for more games in the genre to come to Sony or Microsoft’s systems.

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.
