@Narrative and World-building team: are there any plans for more groups and regions ?

Firstly i love the fact that we will get new lore updates on the Void, Ionia and Bilgewater as well as more on the Daarkin. There is still so much lore to cover but its good that it is moving forward and expanding. Speaking of expanding, it has been mentioned by several rioters that a map of the known world of runeterra would be released sometime this year. I'm guessing that it will expand on the piltover map and show more of Valoran, the Southern Continent, Ionia, and the Oceans and islands surrounding them https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/leagueoflegends/images/3/37/Runeterra_Map_01.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170308222904 There are some places in the old lore which have been mentioned but not fully introduced in the new lore and a full map would help clear up the uncertainty as a few champions are from such areas NidaleeZyra kumungu jungle Alistar Great Barrier JaxZilean Icathia so could these areas and others like them develop into new regions or is the focus right now on making and developing more groups like the vastaya and daarkin at least until the current regions have been updated

Icathia will be a part of the void for sure

No new groups neccessary as they have more than enough work with the current ones...

With how many Warhammer writers have working for them now, and the amount of influence it seems to have in staging the new universe, I wouldn't be surprised if Icathia suddenly became something similar to the Chaos Wastes.

They got rid of the Voodo Lands with the Annie lore update. They could easily make the minotaurs a race living somewhere in Noxus.

They have an entire southern hemisphere and other side of the globe to expand upon. We only know about an equivalent of Eurasia with a bit of North Africa.

I'm pretty sure they said they are planning on completing the map but not soon since they want to do some "stuff". As for other regions i highly agree that there should be an update for them,I'm really into Alistars lore since he has a good potential to build up a good story. It would be cool If a future champion would be from Great Barrier to introduce the whole place with it.

yes, kumungu and icathia needs to be a region on its own
