2022 ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT

Watch Now

 

A Note from Our Leaders

Players are the driving force behind everything we do. Our ability to serve communities around the world with deeply resonant games and experiences only happens because Rioters push the boundaries of what’s possible to evolve the player experience. Evolving culture and making a global impact is a massive undertaking. It’s not the result of just one person or group, it’s the result of players, partners, and Rioters working together. 

Our teams share the goal of creating a more fulfilling, inclusive, and diverse future for gaming. When Riot started sharing these reports back in 2019, it was in an effort to be transparent. Transparent with our data, the programs we were developing, and the progress we were making across all parts of the business. Each year, the goal of this report is to show our progress as we climb the mountain toward a better world and future for Riot, the gaming industry, and players.

People

Like Willump’s snowball rolling through the Freljord, Riot Games is growing...quickly.

Since 2019, Riot has more than doubled in total size going from 2,000 employees to over 4,000. During that time, we went from one game to five, we expanded to TV with our Emmy award winning series Arcane, and we launched more esports circuits to bring the highest level of competition to fans around the world.

Support

The community we nurture within Riot has a ripple effect on the global communities we support and serve.

When we come together with our teams and with people who open us to their lived experiences, we unite the mosaic of cultures that make up Riot Games.

Global Player
Experience

Everything at Riot ultimately ladders up to our games and the people around the world that play them every day.

In 2022, players empowered charity drives that contributed millions of dollars to important causes. We utilized a global mindset to make sure our characters are diverse, representative, and unique for cultures around the world and became closer to where players play by investing in new infrastructure and better localization.
