If you weren’t aware League of Legends is one of the most popular free-to-play games ever, all you have to do is ask the question “How many people play League of Legends every day?”, and wait for the answer. 27 million. Yep, that’s correct.
According to Riot Games (and PC Gamer), 27 million people sign on to League of Legends every day, making it one of the most popular games in the world – free-to-play or not.
What’s even more interesting is just in 2013 alone, League of Legends earned Riot Games more than $624 million. Not bad for a game that’s technically ‘free-to-play’, eh?
If you are one of the seemingly few gamers in the world that haven’t signed up for the game yet (more than 70 million have), why not head over to the League of Legends website and see what all the fuss is about?
