Riot Games has announced a series of updates and events to celebrate the transition from the Year of the Dragon to the Year of the Snake across its flagship games, including League of Legends, Wild Rift, Teamfight Tactics (TFT), and VALORANT. The festivities, set to unfold over the coming weeks, aim to provide players with fresh content and exclusive rewards in honor of the new lunar year.
In League of Legends, the Lunar Revel celebration introduces new champions to the Mythmaker skin line and debuts the Dumpling Darlings. Players can look forward to fresh Mythmaker designs for champions such as Jarvan IV, Cassiopeia, Nami, and Jhin. A cinematic showcasing these new skins highlights the intricate details and thematic elements inspired by the Year of the Snake, adding a visually appealing layer to the game’s vibrant universe.
Meanwhile, League of Legends: Wild Rift is marking the Year of the Snake by temporarily unlocking all champions, allowing players to experience the full roster without restrictions. Additionally, the game will launch the Embroidery skin line, featuring intricate designs that reflect the celebratory theme. As part of the Lunar Extravaganza event, players will also receive a free grab bag containing a variety of in-game items and cosmetics, enhancing their gaming experience during the festivities.
In Teamfight Tactics, the Lunar Festival returns with the highly anticipated Fates: Festival of Beasts set. After a five-year hiatus, this beloved set makes a comeback, introducing new prismatic breakpoints for traits, selected champions, and the addition of augments. The update also brings a range of new cosmetics, including Chibi Mythmaker Zoe, Dark Cosmic Jhin Unbound, and Chibi Prestige Porcelain Ezreal, offering players enhanced customization options and visual appeal.
VALORANT is also joining the celebrations with the introduction of a dedicated event pass and a new skin line named Helix. The Year of the Snake event pass provides players with exclusive missions and rewards themed around serpentine motifs. The Helix skin line features scaly, serpentine designs for various agents, adding a fresh aesthetic to the game’s character customization options and allowing players to personalize their in-game presence in line with the lunar celebration.
Riot Games continues to engage its diverse player base by incorporating cultural celebrations into its game updates. By integrating the Year of the Snake festivities, the company aims to offer unique experiences that resonate with the community, enhancing player engagement and providing a vibrant start to the new lunar year across all its titles.
