An all-new League of Legends spinoff is coming!
Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story is an upcoming title from Riot Forge. This unannounced game was leaked by the Game Rating and Administration Committee in South Korea. The game will allegedly follow Sylas of Dregbourne.
While the listing from the Game Rating and Administration Committee was quickly pulled, eagle-eyed fans quickly spotted it. The game was briefly described as an “action game for PC”.
The game will allegedly follow Sylas on his quest to save the kingdom of Demacia, which will feature “continuous battle scenes against humans/non-humans”
When this news broke, fan reactions were immediately divided.
It seems that the prospect of playing as Sylas is very divisive amongst League of Legends fans, no surprise there. Playing as the ‘bad guy’ isn’t always popular.
First introduced in 2019, his origin story is definitely interesting. Riot Games details in his biography that, “As a boy, his ability to root out hidden sorcery caught the attention of the notorious mageseekers, who eventually imprisoned him for turning those same powers against them. Having now broken free, Sylas lives as a hardened revolutionary, using the magic of those around him to destroy the kingdom he once served…and his band of outcast mage followers seems to grow by the day.” The character also functions as a “defiant symbol of the broken and persecuted in Demacia.”
As there is little to no official information on the game as of now, we’ll just have to wait and see what comes next. Maybe some other committee will slip up and accidentally drop the release date and entire storyline.
