RIOT GAMES TO LAUNCH TEAMFIGHT TACTICS MOBILE IN ASIA-PACIFIC PRE-REGISTRATION STARTS TODAY
18 August, 2023 – Riot Games announced today the start of pre-registrations for the highly anticipated autobattler, Teamfight Tactics (TFT) Mobile, in Asia-Pacific (APAC), which will launch in the region at a later time in the Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.
TFT is an eight-person, free-for-all strategy game where players combine League of Legends (LoL) champions and items in different formations on a grid-shaped game board, competing in a highly social battle against seven other opponents by building a team to be the last one standing.
Since launching in 2019, TFT has emerged as the top contender in the genre by providing a fun and deep chess-like gameplay experience for all types of players on multiple platforms. With countless meta strategies available, every game offers a unique experience, ensuring that no two games are ever the same.
Fans of TFT on PC as well as mobile gamers across APAC will now be able to register their interest for the launch of TFT Mobile through the pre-registration microsite and their local Google Play Store from today onwards. More news will be released about pre-registration for players on the App Store and in Vietnam at a later time.
This impending launch marks the introduction of Riot’s third self-published mobile title in APAC, joining Legends of Runeterra and League of Legends: Wild Rift in its stable of mobile game offerings.
“Earlier this January, we regained publishing rights for League of Legends and Teamfight Tactics PC in the region. This marked the start of a brand new chapter for both games, and many players were calling for us to launch TFT Mobile as well. We’ve heard all of you, and are so excited to confirm that we will indeed launch TFT Mobile later this year.
Pre-registration is now open for most of our markets on Google Play Store and our microsite, and players who pre-register can look forward to exciting in-game rewards when the game launches,” said Alex Kraynov, Managing Director for Riot Games APAC.
“The introduction of TFT Mobile reinforces our commitment to bringing unparalleled gaming experiences to players in this mobile-first region. We invite players to register their interest and to follow our TFT channels, where we will be sharing more updates and announcing the launch date of TFT Mobile later this year.”
Designed with mobile gamers in mind, TFT Mobile will offer features and systems optimized for mobile devices, along with cross-play between the PC and mobile versions.
Pre-registration Rewards
Players who pre-register for TFT Mobile from today onwards can look forward to a plethora of in-game rewards, including highly sought-after items that will be available to claim when the game finally launches in the region.
