2XKO is an upcoming free-to-play fighting game developed and published by Riot Games in collaboration with Radiant Entertainment. The game features characters from League of Legends. It is scheduled to be released for PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S in 2025.[1][2]

Gameplay

The gameplay of 2XKO

2XKO is a 2v2 tag-team fighting game where players select two champions from the League of Legends universe. The game emphasizes strategic team play, allowing players to switch between their Point (primary) and Assist (secondary) characters using a unique tag system.[3] Players can move their characters using standard directional inputs.

The game includes dashes, jumps, and air dashes to enhance mobility. The control scheme features light, medium, and heavy attacks, with each champion having unique normal and special moves that can be executed using specific button combinations.[4] Special moves are performed with a combination of directional inputs and attack buttons. Supers, which are powerful moves that consume meter, can be executed by pressing down twice and a special move button. The tag system allows players to swap between their Point and Assist characters using a handshake tag, enabling dynamic combos and strategic play. Players can call in their Assist for support or switch to them to continue a combo.[5][6]

The game includes various defensive options to enhance gameplay. Players can block incoming attacks by holding back on the directional input. Pushblocking is a mechanic that allows players to push their opponent away, creating space and disrupting their offense.[7] Skilled players can also parry attacks, negating damage and creating opportunities for counterattacks.[8] Each champion has different abilities and playstyles. Ahri is known for her mobility and zoning capabilities, Darius is a mid-range fighter with powerful and brutal attacks, and Ekko uses time manipulation for tricky and unpredictable moves. The Fuse system allows players to customize their duos' synergies and playstyles, increasing the strategic depth of the game by enabling players to tailor their team composition to their preferred playstyle.[9][10] The game offers various game modes, including Arcade Mode, where players can fight through a series of AI-controlled opponents, Versus Mode, which allows players to compete against each other locally or online, and Training Mode, providing a space for players to practice their moves and combos.[11][12]

Development

Initially announced as Project L, the game was later rebranded to 2XKO.[13] It is being developed by Riot Games in collaboration with Radiant Entertainment and is scheduled for release in 2025 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S.[14]
