League of Legends is changing hands to Riot Games self-publishing in Southeast Asia from January 2023, marking the end of a twelve-year partnership for the biggest MOBA game. Since the 2009 launch of League of Legends, the Southeast Asia servers for both it and spin-off strategy game Teamfight Tactics have been handled by Garena, with many players in the region expressing frustration with the differences caused by this deal. Notably, Riot’s latest games including Valorant and League of Legends: Wild Rift have already been self-published in the region. Now both League and TFT are set to follow suit.
