On May 23, Convergence: A League of Legends Story will roll back the years
Convergence: A League of Legends
A rewind would allow me to:
This time, Riot Forge will go into Ekko’s story from League of Legends. Released on May 23, 2023, Convergence: A League of Legends Story stars the time-traveling fighter in a 2D action platformer.
Convergence, created by the same team behind Speed Brawl, has you controlling Ekko as he contends with a threat to the city of Zaun. Ekko appears to be conversing with his future self and temporarily rewinding time in today’s caravan in an effort to prevent a disaster.
In Convergence, Ekko’s special time skills are integrated into the platforming and action. It seems like something Prince of Persia: Sands of Time should be keeping an eye on, whether for the purpose of getting an advantage over enemies or rewinding a failed jump.
Arcane aficionados will enjoy this a little more than other settings because it follows Ekko through the underground city of Zaun. However, there are also champions to face. Other announced champions include Jinx, Camille, and Warwick in addition to Ekko.
Over and over
The release of Riot Forge’s newest movie, The Mageseeker, seems like it was just yesterday. Unlike the last installment, which chronicled the magical uprising within Demacia, players in this one will join Ekko on his adventures in the land of Zaun.
Forge is Riot Games’ publishing arm, and it includes all of these titles and the upcoming Song of Nunu. The goal has been to make League of Legends more immersive by incorporating elements from other games and media, and it appears to be working so far. The Mageseeker and The Ruined King were two excellent examples of new takes on the Runeterra setting. Perhaps the streak will be able to match Convergence’s speed.
On May 23, Convergence: A League of Legends Story will be available for download on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch.
