A Riot rep confirmed to PC Gamer that the conversation took place but denied extortion. Last night, the site had been taken down and replaced by a message from the development team explaining the project's closure and alleging that the "Riot Games security department has contacted us, and tried to extort us into handing over our code and website to them". To quote the Riot employee: "You've obviously put a lot of work into Chrono shift, but I assure you that the Chrono break is coming."Īt the time of writing, the Chronoshift website is prompting a warning in Chrome that the site is insecure. In a post on the Chronoshift website, its developers say they've received legal takedown notices from the LoL developer, but only after a Riot staffer got in touch with one of them via Discord to attempt to shut down the project without the involvement of lawyers. Now the project has been shut down by Riot. Chronoshift was a fan-made "legacy server" that recreated League Of Legends as it was ten years ago, letting people play an older version of the game that's no longer accessible.
