Riot Games' League of Legends video game IP has previously been in the TCG space before, via Magic: The Gathering's Secret Lair release (see “Secret Lair“), but not as its own fully-developed TCG. For this project, Riot has tapped veteran TCG publishers UVS Games to design the game. This new game is slated to arrive in 2025.
"Finding the right partner to bring Project K to players worldwide was crucial—we needed experts who shared our vision for what this game could become,” said Dave Guskin, Game Director at Riot Games. ”UVS brings just that, deep industry expertise and a strong understanding of global TCG communities. With their support, we’re confident we can create an incredible player experience for fans of card games and League of Legends alike."
The final game name and card game design are still in the development stages. The companies will release more information on the TCG closer to launch.
