Our message
Riot: Tap Your Community Before You Sunset 2XKO — We Can Help.
2XKO’s active development is ending in December 2026 because it costs more to run than it brings in. We get it — but before the door closes, we’re asking Riot to consider an option that hasn’t been on the table: us.
This community isn’t just tournament players and gamers. It’s game designers, QA/bug testers, 3D artists and animators, marketing and finance minds, and content creators — many of whom would work for flexible, lower-cost rates because we actually love this game and want to see it live.
We’re not asking for a blank check or a miracle. We’re asking Riot to open a freelance/community-contributor pipeline — flexible, part-time talent to help polish, bug-fix, and support ongoing content — instead of shutting active development down entirely.
If Riot sees real numbers behind this — how many of us are ready to help, and in what role — that changes the math laid out in the announcement. Sign this petition to show the depth of what this community can offer. Please save the greatest game ever made.
#Save2XKO
We’re not just players. We’re the team Riot hasn’t hired yet.

As both a member of the FGC and a voice actor, I want to use my skills to help introduce 2XKO to more people.
