Claims ex-Riot CEO made sexual advances towards assistant declared ‘unfounded’

A 2021 lawsuit filed against former Riot Games chief executive Nicolo Laurent has today been thrown out with the case’s arbitrator stating the claims of sexual harassment and gender discrimination were “unfounded.”

An update on the lawsuit was shared by Riot on May 7, with the company saying it is “deeply grateful that the facts have finally prevailed.” The statement also reiterated Riot’s stance on harassment and discrimination: Neither have any place at the company or within the ranks of its workforce. “It’s also important to state that we will not tolerate malicious accusations against the company or individual Rioters, and we will fight them with the utmost conviction,” the company press team wrote.
