Riot Games to End Development on 2XKO, the League of Legends Fighting Game

Riot Games has announced that it will cease active development on its fighting game, 2XKO, by the end of 2026. The decision comes less than a year after the game's initial launch, as the company stated it has not observed sufficient player retention to ensure sustainability. Although development will end, servers for the game will remain operational beyond 2026, and Riot will unlock all playable characters and issue refunds for in-game purchases. 2XKO was released in early access on PC in October 2025 and later became available on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S in January 2026. Following its launch, Riot had previously announced staff reductions related to the game.
