The following is a copy of the internal message from our CEO.

TLDR: Riot is downscaling. The severance package is great but it’s another round of layoffs in the industry.

This will also majorly affect Legends of Runeterra. They’re putting the game on life support it seems, and will focus on the PvE mode.

They’re also shutting down Riot Forge, their collaboration with other studios to make smaller games with their IP.

What an incredibly stupid fucking comment. Was this a joke or did you really think that this was appropriate?

Yeah, total dick move given that working for Riot games is a fundamental human right. The bastards!
