Former Riot executives lead development of ‘next generation’ open-world game with new IP
Some of the creative minds behind Riot Games’ many titles are joining forces once more, this time in pursuit of a separate endeavor that aims to break into the next generation of a popular genre.
Michael Chow, the former vice president of Riot, and Steven Snow, co-founder of Riot and previous executive producer of League of Legends, have once again joined forces—though this time to create a new game studio, The Believer Company. Accompanying them are various other notable faces from Riot and beyond, including Jeff Jew, Tim Hsu, Landon McDowell, Shankar Gupta-Harrison, and Grace Park, among others likely to join as the team develops.
