Cologne, DE – August 23, 2023 – Today Riot Forge and Tequila Works revealed a sneak peek video showcasing new details about Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story™, a story-driven adventure game starring beloved League of Legends champions Nunu and Willump.
Developed by Tequila Works and published by Riot Forge, Song of Nunu: A League of Legends Story™ takes players on the ultimate road trip with Nunu and Willump, two best friends searching for answers in a gripping narrative game. Fans will discover their unbreakable bond and meet legendary champions along the way as they unlock the secrets of the Freljord, a beautiful but treacherous region in League of Legends.
“Nunu and Willump’s relationship is the driving force of the game and we can’t wait for players to join this inspiring duo on their epic journey,” said Rowan Parker, Creative Director at Riot Forge. “We are thrilled to partner with Tequila Works to tell the story of these fan-favorite characters as they traverse the frozen wilds of the Freljord.”
Players will hike, climb, and sled their way across the Freljord, a frostbitten land full of harsh blizzards, ferocious wolves, and enchantment. Players must use their wits to progress through the frozen landscape and uncover hidden secrets beneath the ice.
“We are so grateful for the freedom Riot Forge gave us to choose the champions that suit our sensibilities, and for their trust to let us dig in the wrinkles of these mighty characters,” said Raúl Rubio Munárriz, CEO, Co-Founder and CCO of Tequila Works. “We can’t wait for all the players to be part of Nunu and Willump’s journey as they explore the unforgiving Freljord … and find the magic in the world, one snowball at a time.”
More information about the game, including its release date and collector’s edition, will be revealed in fall 2023.
