Riot Games has announced the release of an open beta version of the popular online multiplayer strategy game, League of Legends. The Mac client matches the Windows PC client in terms of features, bug fixes, and new content. League of Legends is a session based multiplayer online game which challenges rival teams to compete for victory.

Going native on Mac has been a big goal for us, and we’re really excited to offer the same experience across both platforms.

The Mac client does everything that the PC client does, meaning you’ll get all future features, bug fixes and new content on the same schedule as PC players, but on your native OS. The Cross-Platform team will also continue working diligently to smash any Mac bugs that surface during the open beta.

We want to thank Mac players for waiting so patiently – and a special thanks to the awesome summoners over at iLoL who helped you play on your native OS while the official client was in development. You rock, iLoLers, and we appreciate all the dedication you’ve shown to your fellow Mac-enthusiasts.
