As a Riot Games-developed MMORPG centered in the League of Legends universe, it’s only logical that fans of the franchise would want to know whether the upcoming Runeterra MMO will have any kind of PvP. We now know the answer is “yes, but it won’t be for everyone,” according to a tweet from the game’s executive producer, Greg “Ghostcrawler” Street.

A video speculating about the game sparked this revelation, with a fan pleading with Street not to “abandon the PvP audience.” “The difficulty is that even if I say we’ll have PvP (which we will), it may imply a lot of various things, from ganking to epic fights, looting, dueling, arenas, and even esports,” Street said. As a result, it’s unlikely to appeal to everyone.”

Naturally, this sparked a “heated” “debate” regarding PvP in MMOs in both the Twitter thread and on Reddit, with fans weighing in in support of or opposition to PvP, as well as questions about how it would be balanced. The asterisk indicating that it is “not for everyone” has definitely sparked a lot of curiosity, but we do know that there will be some kind of PvP in this project.

Following a 2018 exposé of the company’s “bro culture,” which included sexual discrimination and harassment, Riot Games has become a divisive figure in the gaming industry. Several developers and high-ranking officials were implicated in the incident, which resulted in a developer labor dispute and walk-out. Former employees and the state of California have filed lawsuits alleging that Riot is refusing to comply with the inquiry.
