The upcoming Riot Games’ FPS title, currently known as Project A, is expected to release a beta for fans to enjoy much sooner than expected, according to recent reports.

During their 10-year League of Legends anniversary stream on October 15, Riot Games announced that they would be taking on multiple projects that fans can expect to see over the coming years.

Among those announcements, they revealed that they had been working on a brand new first-person tactical shooter and according to reports from Latin American news sites, Project A’s beta could be released sooner than expected.

Project A will be a character-based tactical shooter.

According to the article from El Imparcial, which has since been deleted, the source of the rumors supposedly stemmed from Riot Games’ PR & Comms team in Latin America, after content creators were invited to their Liga Latinoamérica facilities in Mexico City.

It was rumored that the beta of Riot Games’ upcoming release could be expected in early March, after it was revealed that those who attended the event would not be able to share much of what they experienced until an embargo is lifted on March 2.

Although it seems apparent that Riot Games will be releasing more information about Project A in the upcoming weeks, it is unknown whether it will simply be an announcement for the game’s beta or its beginning.
