The leaks from this post said...

  • The name of Project L is still under development.
  • There is no confirmed release date even within the company.
  • The game was initially set for the end of 2021, but COVID delayed it.
  • Riot's focus is on appealing to fighter game fans instead of League of Legends fans.
