“Overwhelming demand” for League of Legends TCG Riftbound causes pre-order chaos

It’s safe to say that there’s a ravenous hunger for Riftbound, the League of Legends TCG that’s finally getting an English release this year. Pre-orders went live earlier today, August 4, and within minutes Riftbound appeared to sell out. Fans trying to secure decks and packs of its first set, Origins, also had to fight through checkout issues and crashes on Riot’s website. Now, the company has acknowledged the issues and says that it’ll be “keeping a close eye on market demand” to ensure it gets in players’ hands.
