While we still don't know when League of Legends: Wild Rift will officially launch, it's nice to see that development is moving along, especially since this is probably one of the most anticipated MOBAs for mobile. To be specific, mobile gamers in Vietnam, Oceania, Taiwan, Europe, Turkey, Russia & CIS, the Middle East, and North Africa will be able to jump in starting December 10th. The last we heard from the game was that its open beta rolled out in select Asian territories this past October (2020), and so it would appear that Riot Games is almost ready to roll out the open beta in more regions, inching us closer to the game's eventual release. The official YouTube channel for League of Legends: Wild Rift recently posted a new trailer that reveals the game's beta will land in new territories on December 10th (2020). Of course, if you'd like to receive a notification on the day the game is officially released on the Play Store, feel free to pre-re through the Play Store widget at the bottom of the page. Sadly we still don't have an official release date past the "summer" placeholder, and I couldn't help but notice that monetization wasn't mentioned in the above trailer, which is a shame. So if you're eager to see how the development of League of Legends: Wild Rift is shaping up as the game enters its first limited alpha test, Riot has you covered with the above dev-diary gameplay trailer. Honestly, the above video goes into great detail to describe what players can expect whenever the game officially lands this summer, which is why it's fourteen minutes long. The gameplay is also discussed in the following segment of the video, so it covers the game's streamlined rune system. After that, you'll learn which heroes have made the cut. The first part of the video details that the developer could use some help polishing the game, and so are calling on testers to report issues and bugs through feedback. Riot has revealed the new dev-diary trailer above in order to show off how the game is shaping up under development, while also announcing that a limited Android alpha test will take place in Brazil and the Philippines from June 6 to June 27. The 2020 release supposedly means the game will be available across the globe on mobile by the end of that year, and the console releases should follow shortly after. So far, we know that Wild Rift will offer two digital thumbsticks for the controls in the Android version and that the alpha and beta builds should roll out in the next few months. Once the game drops, those that sign in with existing PC accounts will earn rewards for their time spent in LoL on PC. The game will be free-to-play, though Riot is boasting that it won't be pay-to-win, a bold claim indeed. You can still expect to see more than a few familiar faces in the mix, with around 40 champions anticipated at launch, and more should follow after the official release. So it's clear that Wild Rift isn't a port of the PC version, but an entirely new game. It assuredly looks the part, though the video makes it clear that the game has been rebuilt for mobile and console play with a new 5v5 map specifically designed for these platforms where matches only last 15-20 minutes. The trailer above should provide a good idea of what to expect from League of Legends: Wild Rift.
