Ruined King: A League of Legends Story gets its first turn-based gameplay reveal at The Game Awards 2020

The Game Awards 2020 was an exciting affair for not just the nominated single-player titles but also for Riot Games’ League of Legends.

Riot Forge finally announced the arrival of the Ruined King: A League of Legends Story in the latter half of 2021 during the event. The announcement came with a gameplay trailer which provided a lot of insight on how the game is going to play out once it’s officially out.

Airship Syndicate, the partner company developing Ruined King, shows off the turn-based mechanic in the trailer, along with various elements of exploration.

From what League of Legends fans can make out, it would seem that the world of Ruined King will be vast and quite expansive.

The combat will be turn-based, and players will be able to have four-member parties, where each champion will have their signature abilities playing out in a robust interface.

Those who are intimately familiar with turn-based combat games like Divinity: Original Sin and Digimon Cyber Sleuth or even indie titles like Indivisible will have an easier time picking up this game.

Hence, the Ruined King: A League of Legends Story will have its official release in 2021 for the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, Steam, the Epic Games Store, Playstation 5, and Xbox Series X/S
