COMING SOON TO PC
Whatever you’re playing right now is about to be old

2XKO
W hen it comes to competitive PC gaming, Riot Games is one of the big players, from League of Legends to Valorant. The universe of LoL had quite the expansion with the hit Netflix animation Arcane, and the next spin-off will take it to new uncharted territory: fighting games.
After spending several years going by ‘Project L’, 2XKO isn’t simply made up of a roster pulled from League and rendered in beautiful cel-shaded 3D visuals –it’s also built from the ground up to appeal to a wide audience instead of just hardcore fighter fans. It starts with a streamlined control scheme that will be familiar to fans of Super Smash Bros; instead of complex inputs, there’s an emphasis on rhythm and spacing. So skill and strategy are still required for victory, just none of the usual demanding dexterity.
