League of Legends Wild Rift open beta plans updated

The League of Legends Wild Rift open beta is on the way and we have everything you need to know about when you can get your hands on it.

League of Legends Wild Rift was announced in October 2019 as a "totally rebuilt" version of Riot Games' popular 5v5 MOBA for consoles.

It was promising, but then there was... Very little news about when it was coming out.

Well... Until now.

Open Beta Roll-Out

So far, we only know the first territory to be getting the League of Legends Wild Rift open beta.

Starting March 29th, 2021, the Americas will be getting their hands on Wild Rift.

Below, we've listed the countries the beta will be available:

  • United States
  • Canada
  • Argentina
  • Brazil
  • Mexico
  • Chile
  • Columbia
  • Peru

Thankfully, this now means almost every major region has its hands on the Open Beta! Europe and Asia both got their versions a few months ago.
