2XKO is a free-to-play 2 vs. 2 Tag Team Fighting Game created by Riot Games as a part of the League of Legends franchise.
The gameplay of 2XKO is very similar to other fighting games of its ilk such as Marvel vs. Capcom, with the player taking control of two champions lifted directly from the roster of the original MOBA, and having them freely tag between each other mid match, or call them for a quick assist attack. Unlike most tag team fighting games, 2XKO has multiple rounds per match, meaning that to win a standard game you must still win 2-out-of-3 rounds despite having to KO two champions to get there.
One key aspect of 2XKO that separates itself from its contemporaries is its focus on duos—if you don't want to learn how to play two separate champions, you can instead pair up with a friend and compete as a real life tag team duo with each player piloting their own champion. While this isn't exactly new to tag team fighting games, in the games that have it it's usually treated more as novelty mode, with the meat of the game still being one-on-one player matches. Here, Riot Games put special emphasis on the ability to compete as a team even when the opponent is still a single player, and are balancing the game around the idea of competing with either option.
After a public beta period beginning on October 7th, 2025, the game fully released on January 20th, 2026 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
