What we could make out of the statement is in the following: That is what was released in the statement in the year 2014 by Riot games. In the next two years the player count was off to 65 million. That is a mind boggling number! The Player count in 2014 If we see carefully, we can make out that the game has been played for more than 1 Billion play hours every month. In the year 2012, i.e., in the next year another statement was released about the player count providing details like: There are details of other factors such as the number of minions killed, how many champions are there and how many are died, how much of Gold was earned and many other things. The creators have also grown about five times to a count of 300 in total number of employees.

Naturally the upkeep of the games is quite a job and Riot Games have also grown in the process. 1.3 Million players playing at the same time.The numbers were disclosed in the form of a graph which is pretty nice. In 2021 there has been an announcement by Riot Games and in the official statement the creators have announced the number of players they have. However, not to worry, the count has reached 100-120 million in the year 2020. The story doesn’t end there and by 2017 the number grew by even more and reached 100 million players! The gold run came to decline after that and the numbers reduced to 75 million in 2018, i.e., a year later to achieving the feat of 100 million. You wouldn’t believe that by 2014 the number of players touched 65 million. It started with a few thousand players and by 2011 it had gained a traction of about 11 million players. Riot games had developed the game way back in 2009 and since then there has been no looking back. It is the most played Esport in the entire world! The count of players has seen a rise and fall and yet again rise in this game but it is still huge.

It just gives an idea that it is bigger than what we thought about it.

LoL is easily one of the most popular games in the world today but what does the numbers say.
