The upcoming 2023 World Championship Finals is seen as an important event by Riot Games, and they have invested heavily in it. Riot has organized a festival called “Words 23 Fan Fest” with many activities and extravagant musical performances to build excitement before the match. This festival has attracted a lot of Esports and League of Legends fans in Korea as well as many places around the world in recent days.
Not stopping there, Riot Games also brought to this festival the highly anticipated Project L. Specifically, at the Riot Games Zone, attendees can freely experience Project L and even stream it live if they wish. Even Kim Gwan-woo, a recent gold medalist at the Asian Games in Street Fighter V, came to experience this game.
Some fans believe that Riot Games will announce the release date or even the official name of Project L right at the 2023 World Championship Finals. The first reason is that Project L currently has a fairly complete gameplay. The TAG system previously introduced by Riot has been implemented quite smoothly, creating many interesting combo chains. Therefore, it is understandable that it will be introduced to the public.
Furthermore, a well-known North American streamer – Disguised Toast recently confirmed that he is looking for skilled fighters in the fighting game genre. It should be noted that Disguised Toast is also the owner of the DSG organization and is active in many games like League of Legends, VALORANT, etc. He also stated that he is doing this to create content about Project L next year, which is likely when this game will launch.
Moreover, the 2023 World Championship Finals between T1 and WBG is receiving a lot of attention with Faker’s participation. Essentially, Riot always wants its games to be as widely known as possible. Clearly, the 2023 World Championship Finals is a great opportunity for Riot to announce information about Project L and attract attention from the gaming community.
The last time Riot Games updated information about Project L was back in August 2023. At that time, they introduced the champions Yasuo and Illaoi who would be joining this game. Hopefully, Riot will not keep the gaming community waiting too long and will announce more information about this highly anticipated masterpiece right in the upcoming 2023 World Championship Finals.
