Project L fighting game introduces duo play, demo playable at EVO 2023 Riot GamesRiot Games announced that its eagerly-anticipated fighting game, Project L, will feature a duo play system and appear EVO 2023. Riot originally unveiled the League of Legends fighting game during EVO 2019. Codenamed Project L, the fighter was built around a 2v2 combat system meant to shake up the genre\u2019s status quo. While Riot hasn\u2019t shared the full list of playable characters as of yet, the confirmed roster features the following: Ahri, Darius, Ekko, Jinx, Katarina, and Illaoi. The studio\u2019s latest update about the project teases that even more details sit on the horizon. Most notably, a new character and a playable demo will soon take center stage. LoL fighting game Project L is coming to EVO 2023 The crew at Riot Games confirmed that Project L will return for this year\u2019s EVO festivities. Those who attend can expect the studio to bring a playable demo featuring four characters \u2013 Ahri, Darius, Ekko, and a new champion. That\u2019s right: In addition to a playable demo, Project L\u2019s EVO appearance will also include a new champion reveal. While the fighting game event starts August 3 and ends on August 6, the following post indicates Project L will only stick around from August 4-5. On top of confirming its EVO 2023 plans, Riot additionally uploaded a dev diary centered around Project L\u2019s duo play feature. Executive Producer Tom Cannon noted that \u201cProject L isn\u2019t just a tag-based fighting game.\u201d He continued, \u201cit\u2019s a 2v2 team-based fighting game,\u201d allowing teams comprising two players to face off against each other. So one player will control one champion while their buddy pilots another, meaning Project L is an experience that users can play with and against their friends. According to Game Director Shaun Rivera, duo play works similarly to tag-team wrestling. One user fights on the main stage; their teammate waits off-screen until their partner tags them in. Better still, Project L supports several types of matchups \u2013 1v1, 2v2, and 2v1. The latter matchup means solo players can expect to join tag-team battles and control both playable characters on their own. Project L won\u2019t likely become available as a wide release for a few more years, but EVO 2023 attendees have plenty to look forward to come August.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
