The Riot Games mobile venture is expanding its operations next month. League of Legends: Wild Rift is currently in open beta but it will be available to more players in two weeks. Players from Oceania, Taiwan, and Vietnam will finally get access to the mobile game on December 8. Meanwhile, players from Europe, Middle East, North Africa, Russia, CIS, and Turkey can get their hands on the mobile MOBA on December 10.

The (Wild) Rift is growing

A new content patch is coming to Wild Rift alongside the Europe beta expansion launch. Several new champions and skins will be added to the game. The patch will also include tweaks to the game based on player feedback. Small bug fixes will be made to the game, but what's a Riot Games production without spaghetti code. The official patch notes will be made available on December 8.

Wild Rift is a massive hit in the early weeks of its launch in Southeast Asia, South Korea, and Japan. It has consistently topped the charts in all local mobile app storefronts. This includes the Google Play Store and Apple's App Store.

Riot hopes to continue its booming success by opening up the game in other regions. Riot intended to launch the full game by the end of 2021 but was set back by the ongoing pandemic. Wild Rift has since been pushed back to early 2021 with a console release set for a later date. League of Legends fans in Europe can at least have the chance to check out this brand new mobile game ahead of its official release.
