Teamfight Tactics is now a permanent League of Legends game mode
League of Legends developer Riot Games has confirmed that its in-game autobattler, Teamfight Tactics, is here to stay. In a press release, the studio confirmed that the game mode is now a permanent addition to League of Legends.
Given TFT’s runaway success, that doesn’t come as much of a surprise. While Riot had previously axed new game mode Nexus Blitz, the autobattler was so popular at launch that it was at risk of breaking the test servers, with queues of up to an hour long. In its first week, fans watched 1,700 years of the game on Twitch, and it’s still the most popular game on the platform at time of writing.
TFT’s newfound permanence means that the game’s regular updates will continue, with new ranked seasons, as well as new champions and champion sets. Speaking of which, Riot also announced a slew of new arrivals heading to Teamfight Tactics when League of Legends patch 9.16 drops later in August, introducing a brand-new class to the game.
