News::ESPN and 'League of Legends' studio aren't making a broadcast deal

League of Legends is one of the most popular esports titles in the world, but it's not heading to ESPN any time soon. Spokespeople for Riot Games and ESPN tell Engadget that the companies are not working on a broadcasting deal, despite a report on PVP Live claiming otherwise.

"The story is inaccurate -- no active talks with ESPN at the moment," the Riot spokesperson said.

An ESPN spokesperson further confirmed, "The story is false. We do not have a deal with Riot Games to broadcast League of Legends."
