[2022] Euro is strong again. RP price adjustments?

Maybe you still know the news from 2015.

What do you mean by “economic environment”?

We mostly refer to two things with this: many of our operations (even in Europe) are facilitated through US Dollars, which are currently trending strongly against many European currencies. Additionally, we are continuing to make further investment across Europe in all aspects of League of Legends including the recent Amsterdam data centre and our IP backbone, which are part of an ongoing effort to improve connection stability.

The last months the €uro began to rise again

Sooooo... I'm just asking if we will ever see some RP price decrease? I guess not but a man can dream eh? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When we launched League in Europe, the exchange rate was about $1.49 per euro. It is now about $1.20 (down ~20%) so we're still making less $ when RP is purchased in Europe, as we've only adjusted prices by ~10%, and we even offset some of that with bonus RP to minimize the impact on players as much as possible. This reply explains that and the VAT effect better than I can.

We don't try to make money from exchange rate changes (in fact we generally lose money) and we make negative adjustments as rarely as possible to limit the impact on players. And we're at least as fast with changes that help players, as we did with the pound before the Brexit mess forced us to eventually reverse that change.

If the euro gets back to $1.49, we'll look to bring the $/euro ratio back in line with where it was at League's launch.
