Development of the League of Legends: Wild Rift
With the announcement made in late 2019 at the 10th anniversary of League of Legends, Riot Games has been slowly pushing the game across the globe. The idea was to make the game extremely balanced and flawless, before a global launch. A limited Alpha test in Brazil and the Philippines was carried out to collect reviews and bug reports. After teasing early access during May 2020 and a successful Regional Closed Beta, Riot Games announced the game in Open Beta in countries of Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea on October 27, 2020. At a later date of December 2020, the open beta was expanded to add Vietnam, Oceania, Europe, Turkey and countries from the Middle East. Recently, Riot Games have launched their OBT in the Americas.
