AhhhLeague Of Legends, a MOBA that occupied my university years. While I’d argue climbing the ranked ladder with my housemates were some of the best game moments I’ve ever had, I’d also argue giving up League was necessary. I became too involved, too close to the toxicity. But now League’s threatening to drag me back in with something I hadn’t seen coming - aVampire Survivors-like PVE mode. No! Imustresist (I will be on it immediately when it arrives).

While there aren’t any more details to share, Cortejoso goes on to say it’ll be coming out alongside their “mid-year event” this year. They then showed off a screenshot of the mode in early development which I’ve popped down below.

Yep, it sure looks like a Vampire Survivors-like: A colossal mess of minions on screen, with Jinx at its centre. I think League’s enormous roster of champions and the universe they’re built upon make for a very strong ‘bullet heaven’ on paper. Each champion’s base attack would be whatever they started off with, you’d earn EXP from the minions to level, and perhaps select items from a list every time you dinged. I’m envisaging a mode that encourages and fast tracks you to fun, experimental builds away from the stakes of a traditional League game.
