MMO Recruiting | Riot Games

Jump to Main ContentJump to Primary NavigationYes, it's true...We're Making an MMO

No, you’re not dreaming, we’re working on an MMORPG based in the League universe! We know MMOs take a lot of people to create, and we’ll need a pretty big raid team if we want to bring Runeterra to life. That's where you come in. We’ll periodically post new roles, but right now we don’t have any specific openings on the team—we’re just gearing up for the journey (and need to replace our greens first). If you’re interested in joining, you can submit your information below.

Adventurers wanted!

We're especially interested in folks with experience in the following areas:

• Gameplay Engineering
• Game Design
• UX Design
• Game Art (All Sub-Disciplines)
• Game Production

Looking for group?

We're looking for developers who have direct experience on MMOs—but it's not required for every role. You can submit your interest down below now, and if a role opens up that fits your background and experience, we may reach out and encourage you to apply! Or you can check our careers page for any roles currently open and submit an application. Be sure to check back later if you don't see anything that fits your background now, as we're constantly adding new positions as they open.
