Riot Games has launched a new closed beta of its Partner Program, set to support content creators of League of Legends (LoL), VALORANT, and Teamfight Tactics (TFT). The move comes years after Riot paused the League Partner Program back in 2018.

The program is currently invite-only. A small group of creators from various regions are set to test out new perks. On their website, Riot shared that they aim to build a ‘meaningful and intentional’ system for their creators. The updated version is designed to give them more perks, rewards, and tools. 

Starting in late October, early benefits will begin rolling out. Game partner titles such as ‘Like, Comment, Subscribe’ for LoL, a ‘VALORANT Partner’ for VAL, and a unique Little Legend title for TFT are only a few.

The program is still in its early phase, and Riot noted that features may change as they collect feedback. The Partner Program beta will remain invite-only until late 2026. Riot thanked its fans and creators for their ‘patience, passion, and creativity’ over the years.
