While League of Legends, and several of Riot's other games, are no longer playable on Linux systems, in the interest of digital presevation (and truthfully also because I'm pretty proud of this site), leagueoflinux.org remains online for those curious about some of the history of this once-thriving open source gaming niche.
A few of Riot's games can still run on Linux, notably games published under the now-shutdown Riot Forge publishing label (✊ RIP). You can find further information and instructions about those games here.
All other technical information in this wiki is considered outdated and unsupported, and exists only for archival purposes. It is functionally a snapshot of the state of League of Linux at the time of Vanguard implementation in mid-2024.
It was a remarkably fun time while it lasted, and an even greater pleasure to have been a part of a community of so many talented and passionate individuals. The sheer amount dedication, cooperation, and shared love for League of Linux despite the many obstacles never ceased to inspire and amaze me during my years contributing. Thanks to every single player who made it possible along the way ❤️ 🐧

❤️ A Thank You
A huge thank you and expression of gratitude to all the volunteers who devote time to helping resolve issues, developing tools to make League of Linux a better experience, and everyone who posts and comments. Without the community effort this site would be pretty empty!
This site began its life as the first and second megathreads on the r/leagueoflinux subreddit. Since then it has undergone many revisions, including the relaunch as a built-in reddit wiki, before making its way here at leagueoflinux.org! From humble beginnings, it's been a pleasure to contribute to this community. Thank you all!
leagueoflinux.org is completely open source! Contributions are welcome. To suggest changes, please open an issue.
