New Riot Games launcher with LoL, Valorant, and LoR coming soon

William Davis Published 16/09/2021

A new Riot Games launch client will go live soon and will include all the Riot Games titles in one place. 

The new client will roll out on Monday, September 20, and will provide fans with access and updates for all Riot Games titles in one single client. This will make it easier for players who are active in multiple Riot Games titles with the list including League of Legends, Valorant, Teamfight Tactics, and Legends of Runeterra for PC. 

For this client, each game will have its own page with content that fits the chosen title. The client will offer access to relevant news, updates, and information for all games at all times. All in all, the new client will give a solid overview of all Riot Games activities and make it easier for players to access the games. 

For people that are worried that this new client will take up a lot of time and space to download, the publisher is saying this won’t be the case. Riot has ensured that players won’t have to manually download or install anything new and shouldn’t require much extra space. 

This is something that Riot Games players have been wanting for a long time and now it will finally be launched even though all Riot titles have already been using this multi-game client. 

With new titles being released from Riot Games over the past years, and potentially more to come, a multi-game client was the only next natural step for Riot Games. A company like Blizzard has used a multi-game client for its games for years in the form of Battle.net, which allows players to update and launch Overwatch, World of WarCraft, Diablo 3, and more through one program. 

When will new Riot Games launcher arrive?

The global launch won’t start until October 4 at the earliest. If Riot feels like the client needs extra updates or changes, this global launch date could change.
