Release date not confirmed for beta. No sources available, yet it was edited into this wikipedia page. Suggestion: remove the release section as there is no date yet. Umarnobbee13 (talk) 20:24, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The source I've looked at says the end of 2020, so putting the release date as 2020 without specifying a month or day should probably be good enough. Maybe anyway? Sakura Cartelet^Talk 02:00, 9 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

This content is little more than forked content from the parent lol article.—Prisencolin (talk) 06:15, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, it's essentially a mobile/console version of the PC game with a subtitle, not a distinctly different entity. -- ferret (talk) 11:42, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed Dtlong2000 (talk) 03:44, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose It might be forked content now, but it has potential for expansion. The game appears to be a spin-off, not a port, in which case I would totally support merging. But as a spin-off, it will get separate reviews commenting on what has changed from the original game. This, in my opinion, qualifies it for its own article._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 05:00, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This feels a little crystal bally though. It can always be re-split as sourcing develops and warrants. -- ferret (talk) 12:47, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This seems like a case that merits WP:IAR considering that merging it would be unnecessary and pointless when it inevitably gets expanded later. It might be somewhat of a crystal ball but I think it's pretty predictable that it will get a lot of reception, being based on such a popular franchise._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 15:15, 8 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Largely reiterated content for a game that has not been released. If it warrants its own article when the game comes out, and there is consistent, reliably reported news, then we can reconsider. There's very little to justify it having its own article right now. Imaginestigers (talk) 10:54, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose I highly suggest looking into the game. It's not a port of the PC game ^[1] Killa Koz (talk) 18:51, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Its a standalone game, not a port, merging it with the PC version makes no sense and also seems like people have removed those so called forked content. Panda619 (talk) 09:23, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've remove the tag for merging as it's clear there's no consensus for it after several months. -- ferret (talk) 12:55, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've deleted the gameplay section

It’s reiterated content, cited with the same primary sources as the main League of Legends article, for a game that has not been released. Imaginestigers (talk) 10:58, 5 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

iOS update

We should at least put the upcoming iOS alpha test Rektz (talk) 10:37, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Releasedate

I wouldn't call an open beta as the game being released Hyperakt1v (talk) 23:58, 30 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly change the League of Legends: Wild Rift logo to this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ey4vk7UVIAIQJ7a.png

Minor grammar suggestion:

Please change "After fully acquired Riot Games in 2015" to "After fully acquiring Riot Games in 2015" or just "After acquiring Riot Games in 2015" Scapegoat130 (talk) 19:11, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done "Fully" is necessary; it indicates that Tencent became majority owners of Riot (having already owned some portion of the company that I can't remember). — ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:23, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Promote to GA

I wish to work to promote this article to GA. Is any editor interested in joining? In order to avoid editing conflicts, I suggest a division of topics with an approach similar to League of Legends. Gameplay - Development and Reception, at least for now. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 15:50, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was planning to do it during summer (I took League's article to FA), but happy to see someone giving it some attention early. I might pick up the review for you, if my time allows. Given how new the game is, I can't imagine it'd need two people working on it, honestly. Wishing you the best! — ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:25, 30 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay and Thanks. I will expand the gameplay section firstly. ✍A.WagnerC (talk) 17:21, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thoughts on moving "Release" to be a sub-heading below "Development"?

It would probably make more sense. — Solarvirtuoso (talk with me! | contributions) 13:51, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
