We hope you're as excited as we are for what's coming for sr and TF T there's something else we'd like to share it's something we've been working on for a while and some of you might even be expected TFT isn't the only thing going multi-platform coming soon we'll be bringing the league experience to both mobile and consoles so let's take a first look and League of Legends wild road.
Hey! Reddit LoL there it's Michael Chao I've been dying to talk to you about the wild rift which is coming soon to console and mobile it's taken us years way too long to do this but we had to get it right we needed to figure out how to bring a true league experience to other platforms in a way that's worthy of your love your time your investment when we think we finally got in there with the wild rift and we're thrilled to be able to share it with you now why bring league tell their platforms in the first place well for years.
Many of you have been telling us that the marquee league PC experience is sometimes tough to fit into your lifestyle which can change from one week to the next one month to the next one year to the next you've also been telling us that you simply can't play league with a lot of the friends you love to game with yes because of their lifestyles as well but also because League takes a long time to learn the matches are really long and so on so we built a new rift that you can play on console and mobile with 15 to 20-minute matches and a dual-stick control scheme that's intuitive and satisfying and still super deep we've also added some new systems that preserve the core 5v5 gameplay you know while adding a few twists that we think really shine on mobile and console.
Now while drift is not a port of the PC game taking sr and just shoving it on the new platforms wasn't going to work to get the gameplay just right we needed to rebuild from scratch we spent a long time making sure this will be a true League of Legends experience that's worthy of devoting your precious game time wild rift has incredible depth and you can make those same badass 200 IQ out plays and team plays you know and love from lead PC and we'll be straight with you there are some downsides to the from-scratch approach we've taken we're not going to have every single champion skin available in all platforms and although you won't get the same unlocks between league on PC and this version you will get great rewards for the time you've spent with League over the last 10 years but like I said we think these trade-offs are worth it starting from scratch has given us.
The opportunity to do a full visual remaster on a ton of the game we've also taken the time to build an all-new collection system that lets you show off all your champs and skins in an incredibly immersive way we think this is so dope we're just going to play this for a bit so you can enjoy it we've got so much more to show you but that's everything from me for now as you saw earlier League on PC has some huge plans ahead but we'd love for you to join us on the wild drift when the game releases in your region we're rolling out limited alphas and betas and select regions later this year with plans to roll out on most platforms in most regions globally by the end of 2020 so whether you're grinding ranked on summoners rift popping Poros in a ramp going foolish or a TFT or squeezing in a game on the wild drift we hope that there's a place for you and your friends to dive into the world of League together
