When it releases, Project L will follow a similar monetization scheme as Riot confirms the League of Legends fighting game will be free to play.<\/p>\n<p> <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #1! --><!-- No winning ad found for zone: below first paragraph! --><!-- No winning ad found for zone: mid intro! --> <\/p>\n<p>In today\u2019s development update, Project L game director Tom Cannon told us how Riot plans to make money from Project L, joining the ranks of MultiVersus, Smash Versus, and Brawlhala as a free-to-play fighter.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\">Related: Legend of Runeterra&#8217;s Star Guardian Event Is Going To Ruin My Life<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We want you to be able to play no matter where you live, what your skill level is, or how much money you have to spend on a game,&#8221; said Cannon. &#8220;To that, I&#8217;m happy to confirm that Project L will be free-to-play. When it comes to monetization, we promise to be respectful of both your time and your wallet.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><\/p>\n<div class=\"adsninja-ad-zone\" id=\"adsninja-ad-zone-div-gpt-ad-1535570269372-ccr1\">\n<div id=\"dynamically-injected-refresh-ad-zone-div-gpt-ad-1535570269372-ccr1\" class=\"dynamically-injected-refresh-ad-zone\">\n<div class=\"ad-current\">\n<div id=\"ad-zone-container-div-gpt-ad-1535570269372-ccr1\" class=\"ad-zone-container ad-zone-container-content-character-count-repeatable-1\" data-no-fill-collapsable=\"false\"><strong class=\"ad-zone-advertising-tag\">THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #2! --> <\/p>\n<p>Cannon also gave us an update on Project L&#8217;s development, saying that things are moving along, but not going so far as to even hint at a release date. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re finishing up our work on core mechanics now, and a lot of the team has moved on to building champions or building around game features like competitive play and our social systems,\u201d reported Cannon while footage of the game played in the background. Much of it was the same footage featuring Ekko and Darius that we saw last November, but we also got to see a bit of Jinx and Ahri in development too. <\/p>\n<p>And there&#8217;s a fifth character heading to Project L&#8217;s starting roster. Illaoi, the Prophet of the Great Kraken, will wield a giant golden idol that can rip spirits from the bodies of her foes to feed to her ancient god. She&#8217;s been a staple top-laner in League of Legends for seven years, and she seems no less imposing in her move to Project L. <\/p>\n<p><!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><br \/>\n <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #3! --> <\/p>\n<p>Described as a &#8220;big body juggernaut,&#8221; Illaoi&#8217;s kit will feature massive, powerful blows courtesy of her gold statue. She&#8217;ll also be a midfield powerhouse thanks to ghostly tentacles that can be summoned on successful hits or blocks, creating huge combo potential. Riot said that they&#8217;re being careful to keep Illaoi from becoming a zoner with these tentacles by having them compliment her physical prowess rather than defining a mystical moveset.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">Next: Sunset Overdrive Hasn&#8217;t Aged Well, But It&#8217;s Still Damn Good Fun<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] MultiVersus is having exceptional success as a free-to-play fighter, allowing players to fight with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5554,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5553"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5553\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/game8k.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
