Riot Games has re-organised its leadership in its esports and entertainment segments.
Current esports president John Needham has been appointed president of publishing and esports, and will “create new integrated experiences” that will combine its esports, music, and creative publishing sectors.
Needham was hired as managing director of Europe in 2017, and has since held various leading roles. Prior to Riot, he was head of European publishing at Lionhead and CEO of Cryptic Studios.
