League of Legends is this big: check out Riot's new headquarters

In case you've missed the memo that League of Legends is immensely popular and worth a lot of money, feast your eyes on Riot Games' new Los Angeles headquarters. Situated somewhere at the edge of West L.A. and close to Santa Monica, this is the result of one exceptionally popular MOBA.

Lifesize busts of Annie and Tibbers? Check. Stylish neon blue lighting? Check. A place to play chess when you're not thinking about or playing League of Legends? Check. Conference rooms that look dreary no matter how expensive they are? Check.

It's no wonder: League of Legends currently holds 66.3 per cent of the MOBA market, with Dota 2 trailing behind at a mere 14 per cent.

Deadlock characters
MOBA Deadlock's latest update brings some huge movement buffs like jumping mid slide and 30% increased air control—it's a lot cooler than it sounds
 
 
The Swamp Witch looking menacing
MOBA After deciding to make a MOBA, Quantic Dream also decides to release it at the same time as the Marathon server slam, the first Horizon Hunters Gathering playtest, and the Steam Next Fest
 
 
Viktor from Netflix's Arcane looks very, very tired at someone off-screen, cloaked in a vivid blue hood.
MOBA League of Legends might be adding public voice chat—and as someone with a combined 2,655 hours in Dota 2 and Deadlock, I can safely say: Oh no

MOBA Deadlock's snazziest rich boy, Apollo, gets struck down by a bunch of nerfs after terrorising matches: 'Yoshi took him out back'
 
 
Paige, a new librarian character in Deadlock, looks towards her tome with curiosity.
MOBA I'm sad Deadlock is 'just' a MOBA—not because I don't like them, but because I'm in love with Valve's lore and characters enough to want any other game instead
 
 
Apollo from Deadlock stands smug, while a wounded Celeste is superimposed on the background.
MOBA All of Deadlock's new heroes are now released—but please, pity the poor schmuck that spent anywhere between 252-378 hours pouring votes into Celeste, who came second to last

Petit Planet, a cute stellar life sim
Life Sim Petit Planet is exactly the Animal Crossing clone it looked like, but after 15 hours of it I'm shocked by how many new ideas it has too
