Report claims Riot's massive player targets doomed 2XKO

A report says Riot Games' 2XKO, its upcoming fighting game, was set up to fail because leadership expected player counts 'in the high hundreds of thousands, if not millions'. The claim suggests development costs ballooned under those targets, putting the project in a difficult position from the start. Gamers are debating whether such expectations are realistic for a new fighting game in a crowded market.
Why now: Discussion of internal Riot expectations casting doubt on the future of an anticipated fighting game.
