Next League of Legends patch would be delayed due to a cyberattack

Last week, Riot Games was the victim of a cyberattack that, fortunately, did not release important information about its players. Unfortunately, it seems that this attack will have a consequence in the community of League of Legendsalthough it will be small.

Through social networks, Riot Games announced that the recent cyber attack on Riot Games could impact the launch of Patch 13.2 for the MOBA. This is so since the attack affected his ability to release new content temporarily.

Unfortunately, Riot Games is still unaware of the full impact this situation could have on its development process. This is why they hope to release as much of the content as possible on the promised date; however, the door is open for some of the news from Patch 13.2 to arrive with Patch 13.3 (February 8).

“Attention, players. [El ciberataque] may affect the delivery date of patch 13.2. The team of League [of Legends] is working to push the boundaries of what we can fix to deliver the most time-tested and planned balance changes,” Riot Games explained.
