Riot Games plans to delay 'League of Legends' patch after a cybersecurity breach

Source: Riot Games

If you've been waiting for the next update for League of Legends, you might have to wait a bit more. Riot Games, the studio behind LoL and Valorant, announced that its development systems were compromised during a social engineering attack that happened early in the week. Riot wanted to emphasize that its player data and personal information haven't been compromised but it has "temporarily affected" its ability to release content. Riot said, "While our teams are working hard on a fix, we expect this to impact our upcoming patch cadence across multiple games."

For LoL, this impacts the version 13.2 update expected to come out on January 25. “Nothing that would have been in 13.2 will be cancelled, we might just have to move things that can't be hotfixed (e.g. art changes) to a later date instead,” Andrei van Roon, the head of Riot’s League Studio, added. There's another patch arriving in February, so we might see it then.
