Riot Games, the studio behind acclaimed games like League of Legends and VALORANT, is reportedly venturing into a new genre with a player-vs-player MMO shooter, codenamed “Project T.” Though long rumored, leaks and job listings have now seemingly confirmed the ambitious release.
Riot is working on ANOTHER MMO!
The news was recently leaked by PlayerIGN over at X, known for its reliable insights into upcoming games. Its team, @404Leak, revealed that Riot is working on a first-person shooter (FPS) PvP title, speculated to be “Project T.” This game apparently aims to compete with heavyweights like Destiny 2 and, if development remains the same, will reportedly feature seasons and personal quarters.
Project T initially surfaced via a since-deleted job listing that referred to an "unpublished R&D product" and mentioned FPS elements. Riot's listings point to a game with a broad scope, likely targeting both PC and console platforms and a live service model. The game's development includes multiple employees, including combat designers and animators, suggesting significant progress.
Speculation about Project T being set in the VALORANT universe has since been fueled by a VALORANT survey that asked players about their interest in various games. However, there has been no concrete evidence on that front. One thing that does seem more certain is that Project T appears to be a separate project from the highly anticipated and delayed League MMORPG, with a focus instead on its FPS and PvP elements.
