League of Legends Mobile may be out soon. New video surfaced on August 26 showing mobile phone owners playing a game of League of Legends on their mobile – from a selection of Champion, Runes and gameplay.
Although the interface on the phone is a bit cramped, the controls are optimized to be suitable for MOBA games. Even champions like Ezreal (in the video) can be controlled without too much trouble.
That also means that Teamfight Tactics will soon launch on mobile as part of a mobile application on League of Legends. This will put a lot of pressure on Valve’s main rival Dota Underlords – Dota Underlords has been available on mobile for a while. Although Tactics’ viewership has dropped significantly compared to before, this mod is still one of the 10 most popular games on Twitch, with an average daily viewership of 20K.
League of Legends Mobile was announced in May of this year, a partnership between Riot Games and parent company Tencent. According to Reuters, “The relationship between Tencent and Riot has long been troubled in terms of maximizing profits for the game. Riot turned down Tencent’s offer to develop a mobile version many years ago.”
Why Riot agreed to develop League of Legends Mobile can be related to Tencent’s mobile MOBA game, Honor of Kings (Arena of Valor) – the game that is stirring up the mobile MOBA game market. Mobile games are extremely popular in China and also the largest game market globally, and with League of Legends “not very positive”, it is obvious that Riot will want to increase its revenue.
