• Yes. All players can play RIOT without Premium and without RIOT Pass. They can all progress through contact levels and get all the rewards except for the RIOT Tokens.

• Sort of. Technically, purchasing RIOT Pass gives you the extra ability to earn RIOT Tokens as you do the normal progression through contact levels. However, @BXNNXD's statement is true if you have already progressed through levels without having a RIOT Pass. If you buy one that season, then you'll get all the past RIOT Tokens you missed and have the ability to earn the remaining RIOT Tokens for the rest of the season.

• Sort of. If you have a RIOT Pass, then you get RIOT Tokens for leveling up the RIOT contact.

 

For clarity:

• There is no obligation for regular players to play in RIOT. It's just another mode like Fight Club.
• RIOT Tokens are spendable in the RIOT Store, which will contain a couple seasons of rewards. The idea is to give players who want to grind RIOT the opportunity to get a lot of value for less than the current cost of Premium.
• Eventually items will rotate out of the RIOT Store, and regular players can purchase them directly off of ARMAS at their regular price.
• All players who have Premium keep it and the existing benefits, except for the cooldown bonus that we are making standard for all players.
• All players who want to buy Premium will have a method of getting RIOT Pass for free if they get two months of Premium in the package.
• All players who want a RIOT Pass, can either get it as part of purchasing Premium or get it separately.

 

NOTE: The 2 month Premium pass that includes RIOT Pass for free is a little confusing. Sorry about that. Our goal was to find a way to give RIOT Pass for free to players who buy Premium.

The problem is that RIOT Seasons are 2 months long, and Premium runs on a completely different schedule that can be bought for 30 days at a time. We also give away lots of small increments of Premium.

 

Hopefully that helps.

 

Thanks,
Matt

Can we get some examples of what is going to be on the RIOT Store?

LO has been pretty good thus far showing stuff when it's ready.

I assume they same will be true with the RIOT store.
