The Review
League of Legends is the most-played PC game in history, with a peak of over 100 million monthly active players. Riot Games took the MOBA formula from DotA and polished it into a global esport with its own World Championship that fills stadiums. The champion design — over 160 unique characters — represents the deepest roster in competitive gaming. Love it or hate it, League shaped how the entire industry thinks about live service games.
