It’s 3 AM in LA and our campus is packed with Rioters watching #VALORANTChampions. Most important question: @LOUDgg or @TeamVitalityVAL?

OCE has always brought its own unique style to the rift. So we had to pay homage to the lore of Bazza and Dazza in our Sydney office.

We love an artist alley at our events. So much so, we also bring them to our Los Angeles campus. @eyyojimbo was one of the incredibly talented artists who graced our quad with his work.

Our interns capped off their internship with a week in LA connecting with their teams, meeting fellow interns, exploring HQ, and, of course, a little karaoke. We even had an intern make this video. This is Riot’s Intern Week:

Walk into Riot Games and look to the right of Tibbers, and you’ll see an alt Viper, a photo-realistic Astra, and other explosions of color, clamor, and Champs. Every visitor to our LA office walks past the art, but not everyone knows the story. In 2023, we collaborated with seven LGBTQIA+ artists for Pride. After the campaign, we bought their favorite piece, framed it, and hung it in our halls. Thanks for helping decorate Riot @Luzdanaee, @SuperRisu, @Hekatiane, @yellowestmango, @arteapotstudio, @ryuunart, and unholythorne.

Some hidden details in our Sydney office tour: 1. The art in the Bilgewater room is by Kathleen Korda, an indigenous artist. 2. Chippie Chase, the arcade game, was built during Thunderdome. 3. A construction worker drew a smiley face. We liked it, so we designed around it.

Our Sydney dev studio is hiring for roles across @VALORANT, @LeagueOfLegends, R&D, and more. We asked three Rioters in Sydney to share their journeys, career leaps, and advice to help future Rioters envision life as a dev in Oceania. 🔗riot.com/4wOpWT1

Last week we held Thunderdome, our version of a hackathon. Rioters worked on [REDACTED], [REDACTED], and [REDACTED]. Kidding… kinda. The goal of Thunderdome isn’t to ship anything, but the work during Thunderdome has led to everything from game modes to anti-cheat products
Large group of Rioters gathered in the Thunderdome event space with rows of computers, stage lighting, and a Rioter speaking onstage to the crowd beneath exposed wooden beams.

Each of our 20+ offices around the world comes with its own unique flavors—literally. We’re talking snacks. From Sydney to London to Mexico City, each office carries its own selection. So we were curious: What’s the local favorite?
