Following on from the publisher’s announcement that it is revamping its League of Legends European Regional League (ERL) ecosystem, Riot Games has announced further details regarding these changes.

Among the announcements, it has been revealed that there will be a total of five accredited regional leagues for the 2022 season. This includes Superliga (Spain), the LFL (France), the NLC (Nordics, UK and Ireland), Ultraliga (Poland, Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia), and the Prime League (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland).

As a result, this means that competitions such as Italy’s PG Nationals, Portugal’s LPLOL, and the new Belgium and Netherlands league are among the entities listed as Non-Accredited ERLs.
