Riot Games has released Legends of Runeterra (LoR), the free-to-play card game set in the League of Legends universe.

The game is entirely free on PC, Android, and iOS, and it features cross-play between platforms.

For those of you who have been playing since the beta, you'll be pleased to know that as a part of its official launch, LoR is also releasing its first expansion, Rising Tides.

Rising Tides charts new territory with the addition of Bilgewater, a region where pirates never pass up a chance for mischief and monsters of the deep devour entire ships without warning. Sounds fun, right?

In the treacherous harbour of Bilgewater, locals live by one code: take whatever you can.

More importantly, Rising Tides adds over 120 new cards and 11 champions from the League of Legends universe including Miss Fortune, Fizz, and Gangplank, among others.

The set also introduces six new card mechanics, adding more depth and intriguing gameplay options for players.

“We’re thrilled to officially launch Legends of Runeterra following our incredibly exciting Open Beta,” said executive producer Jeff Jew.

“Our commitment to strategic interactive gameplay, rich deckbuilding, and amazing champion moments remains as strong as ever, and now is the perfect time to jump in and explore all that Runeterra has to offer".

You can keep up to date with all the happenings from the game on Riot's various channels such as YouTube, Twitter and Instagram.

Set in the world of League of Legends, Legends of Runeterra is the strategy card game where skill, creativity, and cleverness determine your success.

Much like Blizzard's Hearthstone and Wizards' Magic The Gathering, you choose your champions and combine cards from different regions — each with their own style and strategic advantage — then build the perfect deck to take down the rest.

Building a deck and getting the cards you want has never been easier, as LoR offers the most generous and player-focused progression systems in the genre.

Players can earn all cards for free or directly purchase the cards they want, without ever having to buy random packs.
