Strap in for a spin-off revolution on April 18th
Last month, Riot Forge announced their latest spin-off would launch sometime this Spring. We now have an April 18th release date forThe Mageseeker: A League Of Legends Story, alongside an snazzy trailer that’s bursting with sick 2D pixel art, outrageous magical abilities, and a few lore teases. The action RPG comes from developer Digital Sun, the folks behindMoonlighter, the roguelike shopkeeping-sim hybrid.

I’m a fan of Digital Sun’s Moonlighter, although I wouldn’t say its combat was the highlight. I mostly enjoyed my time shopkeeping, stocking shelves with loot I’d gathered, and watching my profit balloon upwards. It was as if I was in some kind of capitalistic utopia; dungeon raiding at night and getting rich in a cottage core shop during the day. Mageseeker’s action seems way more bombastic, but I’m curious to see if the devs have carried over those management elements - overseeing a revolution is a numbers game, after all.
There are two more League Of Legends Stories (spin-offs) scheduled for this year. The time-bending platformer Convergence is slated for the summertime, while Tequila Works' gorgeous puzzler Song Of Nunu is coming this Winter. 2023 is shaping up to be a big year for Riot with three ancillary LoL spin-offs and asecond seasonof the Netflix show Arcane. Never mind therecent layoffs,ransomed code, andbankrupt crypto deal.
The Mageseeker will launch on April 18th and will be available on Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, and PC viaSteamandGOGfor £25. There’s also a Deluxe Edition available for pre-purchase that includes some item packs.
