SK Telecom T1 has won the League of Legends 2015 World Championship. They are the first-ever two-time winners of the Summoner's Cup.
SKT took the win over KOO Tigers in game four following a surprising Tigers victory in game three. SKT's MaRin played Gnar, Bengi rolled Elise, the legendary Faker dominated with Ryze, Bang's Sivir was superb, and Wolf's Alistar did that smashing thing Alistar does best.

Fight to free Earth from alien domination in the PC-exclusive sequel.
Last week, 2K teased us with a cryptic website: AdventFuture.org. On it, a supposedly utopian near-future government called the Advent Administration offered a better life for citizens through genetic enhancement, while hackers subversively replaced text and images revealing that Advent isn’t as benevolent as it seems.
Today, IGN First officially announces that the game 2K hinted at is in fact Firaxis Games’ XCOM 2, a full sequel to 2012’s critically acclaimed XCOM: Enemy Unknown and a continuation of the now 20-year-old legendary tactical squad combat series, which will be available exclusively on PC this November. Watch the debut trailer above for a glimpse into a future where the aliens are in control of the Earth, and XCOM has gone underground to fight to overthrow their Advent government. This new guerilla force will face more powerful enemies in unpredictable combat scenarios as they fight to turn the tables on a technologically superior enemy.
Over the next month IGN will reveal huge details about XCOM 2, uncovered during our visit to Firaxis’ Maryland studio. Tomorrow you’ll get an in-depth overview and interview with Creative Director Jake Solomon that’ll highlight the major new features, including new soldier classes, new aliens, stealth-infused tactics, procedurally generated maps, and more. Following that, we’ll have a Rewind Theater examination of all the details in today’s trailer reveal with Solomon and Lead Producer Garth DeAngelis.
And, later this week we’ll go in-depth with Solomon and DeAngelis on the reasons behind the bold move to take XCOM from a multiplatform series to a PC exclusive, and how XCOM 2 will be tailored to take advantage of that single platform’s strengths – followed by Firaxis’ exciting plans to support modders and their work.
You might notice a lack of gameplay video, but fear not: in two weeks, we’ll debut the first in-game footage of XCOM 2 on our IGN E3 Live Show.
All of that and much, much more XCOM 2 is coming your way. As a huge XCOM fan, I couldn’t be more excited to tell you all about it.
DICE's upcoming multiplayer to receive an Arabic makeover.
EA today announced that Star Wars: Battlefront, DICE's upcoming multiplayer shooter, will receive Arabic localization support. The game will support Arabic menus and subtitles for dialogues, however Arabic voice overs will not be included.
Star Wars: Battlefront continues the trend for Arabic support in the region, as more publishers look to cater to the local audience in the Middle East. Recently, games like The Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed: Syndicate, Just Cause 3, and more, have all included Arabic support in varying degrees.
Star Wars: Battlefront recently concluded its open-beta which saw 9.2 million players logging into try the game. We were both pleased and disappointed with the beta, where on one hand we liked the game's authentic Star Wars experience and its epic scope, but also found the early level grinding and the lack of servers a disturbance in the force.
The game releases on November 17, 2015 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
