LoL is coming to Russia!

Posted on at 9:21 AM by Moobeat

It looks like League of slowly expanding to take over the world! First China, then Korea, and now Russia are all converting their humble gamers into dedicated Summoners and entering the fields of justice. Note the bit at the end that mentions a special commemorative skin. Delicious.

Summoners!

As you’re all aware, League of Legends is a worldwide phenomenon that is continuing to expand, bringing new countries and cultures into our global community. Well today, we’re pleased to announce our intention to expand the game to include full Russian language support, with a dedicated platform, website and forums.

The monumental task of localizing all of our current content to this new Language has already begun, but there is still much to do before the process is complete. We will be able to open the doors to our first beta players very soon, however, and will be reaching out to active members of our existing Russian community in the near future.

Stay tuned for more information on our Russian language release, including an FAQ as well as exciting details on our future plans for eSports programs in Russia and a special skin to commemorate the launch!

We’re extremely excited to welcome another country into our worldwide community, and we look forward to seeing new competitors joining the League in the coming months!

Приготовьтесь к совершенно новому витку в Истории League of Legends. Играйте! Завоевывайте победы! Скоро и на Русском языке.
