Riot Games, the studio behind famed games like League of Legends<\/em> and VALORANT<\/em>, is reportedly venturing into yet another new genre with a player-vs-player MMO shooter, codenamed “Project T.” While it’s long been rumored, leaks and job listings have now seemingly confirmed the ambitious release.<\/p>
The news was most recently leaked by PlayerIGN on X, known for his reliable insights into upcoming games. His team, @404Leak, disclosed Riot is working on a first-person shooter<\/a> (FPS) PvP title, speculated to be “Project T.” This game apparently aims to compete with heavyweights like Destiny 2<\/em><\/a> and\u2014if it stays the same during development\u2014will reportedly feature seasons and personal quarters progression.<\/p>
Project T initially surfaced through a job listing that has since been taken down<\/a>, referring to an “Unpublished R&D Product” and mentioning FPS elements<\/a>. Riot’s job postings hint at a game with a large scope, likely targeting both PC and console platforms and featuring a live service model. The game’s development involves multiple employees, including combat designers and animators, indicating pretty substantial progress.<\/p>
Speculation about Project T being set in the <\/a>VALORANT<\/a><\/em><\/em> universe has since been fueled by a VALORANT<\/em> survey asking players about their interest in different games. There’s no concrete evidence on that front yet though. One thing that does seem more certain is Project T appears to be a separate project from the much-anticipated and delayed League<\/em> MMORPG<\/a>, focusing instead on the FPS and PvP elements.<\/p>
Further details from a Reddit post shared some months back claim Project T will include an in-game economy<\/a> that will allow players to buy and sell items as well as a global market system similar to those found in most MMORPGs. The game’s reported design emphasizes character and personal quarters progression, hinting at a player housing feature where players can customize their space and prepare for missions.<\/p>
