What is Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story all about
On September 14, 2023, Bandle Tale: A League of Legends Story was finally unveiled during the Nintendo Direct event. This heartwarming crafting RPG is set to be the 6th League spin-off title to be released by Riot Forge, and is announced to be developed by Lazy Bear.
In Bandle Tale, players step into the shoes of their very own Yordle, living in Yarnville where the art of knitting isn’t just a craft but a way of life. All seems peaceful until the yordles find themselves in a challenging situation when the portals weaving the islands begin to crumble. With the entire Bandle City plunged into complete disarray, the entire fate of this city rests upon the players’ shoulders.
From gathering the materials, crafting gadgets, tending the garden, cooking to fishing, there’s certainly going to be a lot of work involved in restoring harmony in Bandle City. As players venture across five distinct islands, they will have the pleasure of encountering familiar faces along the way, eager to lend a helping hand in fulfilling their quests. As seen in the trailer and promotional arts, yordles such as Corki, Tristana, Rumble, Teemo, Lulu, Veigar, and Yuumi will make an appearance.
Aside from the gameplay, not much is known about whether a co-op system will be available in the game. However, fans can expect more updates as the Bandle Tale’s launch date draws nearer.
