League of Legends Worlds is a prestigious yearly tournament that wrapped up its 2023 run recently. The victors, T1 from Korea, took home $445,000 along with the gold. In a sad twist of fate—one that belongs in some Greek tragedy—a member of the winning team still didn't get what he wanted.

I don't know about you, but my favorite way to see new games announced is in PowerPoint documents with titles like "3Q 2023 Earnings Results - Investor Relations." It's just so magical. I get little tingles all over.

It'll ship next year.
