League of Legends' new 2v2v2v2 game mode: Gameplay details, expected release date, and more

in league •  2 years ago 

Riot Games has finally disclosed details on the forthcoming League of Legends 2v2v2v2 game mode. With the publication of the dev diary video series, the game developers revealed further information about the other forthcoming game modes for the summoner's rift.

Riot Games developers Riot Brightmoon (Executive Producer of League of Legends) and Meddler (Head of League Studio) revealed the impending 2v2v2v2 game style a few weeks ago. They followed up with new information on gameplay specifics. For the time being, the game mode is nameless, with the game creators refusing to share a codename or title.

Riot Games has indicated that one of their aims is to explore gaming both physically outside of Summoner's Rift and especially outside of the core League of Legends gameplay experience, which is why the impending 2v2v2v2 game mode will undoubtedly be a much-needed and appreciated shift.

According to Riot Games, the upcoming League of Legends game mode aims to get players into champion vs. champion combat as quickly as possible, push champion itemization possibilities in an untraditional direction for the game, and minimize time spent dead or wedged in a frustrating game as much as possible.

Four teams of two will be able to choose champions and will be partnered against another team in multiple death-match-style rounds in the forthcoming League of Legends 2v2v2v2 game mode. Champions will be able to advance in power during the game, collecting equipment, levels, and unique abilities known as Augments in between combats.

Moreover, teams will be eliminated after losing a certain amount of rounds, allowing them to exit and queue up for another game, conserving League of Legends players' time and allowing more games to be played. This idea is extremely similar to the one currently in use for the TFT game mode Double Up, which inspired this project.
