Riot , the company behind the massively popular MOBA League of Legends , has announced their new first-person shooter called VALORANT, previously known as Project A .

Jonathan Liebesman called the shots on the $150 million sequel, with most reviews ( read ours ) indicating that it is an improvement on its predecessor.

"We have another major update planned for March and future content arriving throughout 2012 and 2013. We plan to release new Operations, Flashpoints, Warzones, Space Missions, single player content, vehicles, and companion characters. We’ll always be improving our existing game with additions like guild banks, PVP ranked matches and interface customization.

Because of the nature of its narrative, there's a risk the film could feel very video game-like, with serviceable (if unremarkable) dramatic exchanges and character beats largely serving as the glue that connects each new mission undertaken by the Bandito Platoon.

The CW is bringing up the rear as far as the 2017 network upfronts are concerned. The younger-skewing network is following the likes of ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC, which have all presented their new wares to advertisers, showing off what new comedies and dramas are coming to broadcast television. This year, the networks have presented a slew of new shows, with ABC and CBS offering a surprising amount of never-before-seen programming to their lineups. As usual, The CW is doing things a little differently, with only four new shows coming to the network this year – two in the fall with Valor and Dynasty , and two as midseason premieres in Black Lightning and Life Senten

Waugh was more direct in his thoughts, adding that, " if you think sacrifice is a recruitment video, then obviously [you] completely misconceive about what that word mean


Valor fulfills The CW's president Mark Pedowitz's wish for a military drama, and marks the network's third attempt at bringing such content to the lineup. Meanwhile, the reboot of Dynasty is the next in a long line of re-imaginings of television properties for a new generation. The CW is aiming for the 90210 and The OC crowd with the show, making its pairing with the genre-straddling Riverdale on Wednesday nights a smart choice. Life Sentence is also a departure from the network's superhero side of things, as the show centers on a young woman (played by Pretty Little Liars star Lucy Hale) who discovers she's no longer dying of cancer and now has to live with the consequences of certain decisions she made when under the impression there was no tomorrow (sorry, charming but canceled CW sh
