Riot Games opts for Hansoft

Sweden-based management tools vendor Hansoft has revealed a licensing agreement with League of Legends studio Riot Games.

The LA-based Riot says it decided to use Hansoft’s project management tools after looking for a pipeline solution that was both “flexible enough to handle agile development”, and able to offer “the depth of reporting we need at Riot Games”.

Mark Franz, director of development at Riot Games, said Hansoft has “dramatically reduced” the studio’s planning overhead.

He adds, “It has given us much greater clarity around how quickly we’re progressing towards our goals, as well as the flexibility we need to support the fast paced development at Riot Games".
