With more than 600 million players globally, Riot Games, the game developer of international hit titles like League of Legends, Valorant, and Wild Rift, is expanding in the Asia Pacific region.
At the moment, they have a publishing and studio office in Singapore, as well as an operations office in Japan. With the goal of being “the most player-focused game company in the world”, Riot will be setting up new offices in Southeast Asia and South Asia.
They plan to focus on “hyperlocal publishing”, and have also internally reorganized their company structure.
