A quick rundown of updates on a champ update, Season 1 reveal, gameplay, Ranked resets & more.

Hey folks, Pabro, Meddler, Riot Phroxzon, Riot Auberaun, 100pc nuggets, and Mackivor back with another TL;DW of today’s Dev Update:

  • Viktor is receiving an update to his art, backstory, and a small update to his gameplay to better align game and show.

  • Prototype Viktor is increasing from 520 RP to 750 RP.

  • Next year we’ll have three Seasons, each with their own thematic.

  • In each Season we’ll follow different champions across Runeterra.

  • There will be an overarching narrative for 2025.

  • There will be Seasonally-themed content including skins, gameplay updates, modes, mini-games, and champions.

  • We’ll still have non-Seasonal content as well.

  • Season One will take place in Noxus.

  • Noxus is taking over the map in Season One.

  • There is a new system called Feats of Strength, with new Noxus-themed boot upgrades.

  • Nexus turrets will respawn.

  • There are vision-related new runes in the Domination tree, and a new ult-focused rune called Axiom Arcanist.

  • There are some updates to items.

  • Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin is coming to League as a new neutral objective, spawning once at 20 minutes in one of two forms, providing unique buffs, terrain changes, and more.

  • Check out the blog for more details.

  • We are redoing the Pass system in League—removing Event Passes and Tokens and replacing them with Battle Passes.

  • Battle Passes will always be active and will have a free and paid track.

  • For more details, please check out the blog.

  • We’re going to one single Ranked reset next year in January, with no resets after.

  • There will still be 3 Victorious skins—one for each Season.

  • We’re testing replacing Quickplay with Swiftplay in some regions.

  • We’re exploring adding Multiplayer Practice Tool to League—it’ll be an experimental feature, so there may be some interesting bugs.
