Hytale, the Minecraft of Riot Games, is presented again as a Made with Heart project

In April 2020, Riot Games acquired Tale. Not so directly, the League of Legends company will have its own Minecraft with a more focus on mini-games and cooperative experience. Months after bittersweet news about his release, Tale returns to the public gaze with a new trailer.

At dawn on November 21, Riot Games made a lot of noise with several advertisements. From the cities of Worlds to the first full Gameplay of Project L, there were news for all taste. Also, for construction lovers and Minecraft style games. And is that Tale arises from the idea of ​​managers for making a leap in his work, seeking to be more professionals.

Tale did not start like a Minecraft of Riot Games. It was a Minecraft server, known as Pixel, where there were some mini-games. Eventually, he passed Pixel Studios to make a game on his own. Roxy explains that it is a project made with the heart, supported by a Riot Games that is betting on the ideas of independent creators. The same Nicole Laurent, executive director of the company, commented that this happens because sometimes they want to explore ideas, but they can not take care of everything.

Laurent also admits that there are occasions in which Riot Games is not the best place for certain projects to be given. In the case of his own Minecraft, he bet on the effort of Roxy and Pixel Studios to bring his vision to life.

Roxy relates that the association with Riot Games helped the progress of development. Also, he traces a parallel in the history of Tale and League of Legends: both arise from a product created from another. In the case of the MOB, it is a modification of DATA, which emerged as a project of the Warcraft community 3.

In this way, and with both monetary and advice support, Tale began to take shape. Sean McCarty, director of operations of Pixel Studios, took a quick look at what is the Minecraft in collaboration with Riot Games. It is a procedural game with personalization, where players can undertake adventures in the vast world available. Basically, it is a mixture of the best of Minecraft with fantasy RPG elements.

McCarty also highlighted Mods support. Considering that Tale himself emerged as one, it is logical that the company seeks to offer tools for more creative fanatics. These range from color changes to retouching in the characters models.

With the support of Riot Games, Tale managed to expand her work team. It is a very ambitious game that plans to leave on several platforms, delivering social and semi-competitive experiences.

Tale still does not have a launch date. If we are lucky, the Minecraft of Riot Games will come out at some point of 2023, with PC as one of the confirmed platforms.
