Riot Games Unveils New Additions to the League of Legends Universe
Riot Games has shared some exciting updates for League of Legends fans. The highly-anticipated champion roadmap reveals a glimpse of new characters set to join the game within the next year.
The roadmap includes the introduction of Hwei, an artistic mid laner, and two other champions with unique designs that the game has yet to see. Although there are no details about their names, roles, or release dates, more information will be disclosed in the upcoming months leading to their debut on Summoner’s Rift.
An Adorable Creature-Champion and a Vastayan Solo Laner on the Horizon
After the release of Hwei later this year, players can expect a new creature-type champion to join the roster. Riot Lexical, the lead of the champions team, describes this character as “cuter” compared to the previous monster-like champions. The teaser image showcases a blue egg-shaped object with flames, hinting at the champion’s dynamic and fiery abilities.
Following that, a Vastayan solo laner, specifically designed for the top lane, will enter the game. This champion possesses the unique ability to “see what others easily overlook,” possibly granting vision of targets similar to Quinn or Ashe. While no teaser image was released for this character, it was mentioned that her journey extended to the Freljord, a remarkable achievement among Vastayan champions.
Deeper Dive into Hwei and Skarner’s Rework
While the teaser provides fans with an exciting preview, Riot also offers a closer look at Hwei, the upcoming mid lane mage, as well as the rework for Skarner. Both champions are expected to make their debut in the game soon. More information regarding all the champions mentioned in this roadmap is anticipated to be shared in the following months.
