An Important Update about Riot’s Future (www.riotgames.com)

TLDR: Riot is downscaling. The severance package is great but it's another round of layoffs in the industry.

This will also majorly affect Legends of Runeterra. They're putting the game on life support it seems, and will focus on the PvE mode.

They're also shutting down Riot Forge, their collaboration with other studios to make smaller games with their IP.

don’t have the gall to complain about a lack of manpower or expertise availability a few years down the line.

Don't worry, they will.

Companies aren't like people with friends who hold them accountable for lying.
