Review Bandle Tale: A League Of Legends Story (Switch) - A Cute Crafting RPG That Needs Untangling
Legends never die

After being mostly confined to the MOBA for years, things like the new Arcane show, an impending MMO, and some spinoff games are starting to bring this rich universe to audiences that aren’t reached by the main title...
