Riot Games Unleashes 2XKO on Consoles This January

New Fighting Game Launches Alongside First Season

Renowned for its expertise in PC gaming, Riot Games is now entering the console arena with its latest offering, 2XKO. This exciting new game will be available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on January 20, aligning with the commencement of its inaugural season. Gamers can enjoy the game worldwide and take advantage of cross-play functionalities, ensuring their progress from their PC accounts remains intact.

In a strategic move that echoes most of its recent projects—Valorant being a notable exception—Riot Games has borrowed beloved characters from its storied League of Legends roster and placed them into a fresh gaming category. With 2XKO, Riot is venturing into the realm of 2v2 fighting games, introducing players to an engaging new combat experience. A lineup of ten well-known League of Legends champions was present when the game entered early access on October 7, setting the stage for its widespread release.
