Riot Games‘ John Rong and David Xu were on hand during the latest developer video to present League of Legends: Wild Rift Patch 5.2. It’s hexin’ time! July 18th, put your goggles on and be ready for a Rift and creatures you’ve never seen before.
The last patch 5.1 was a new territory for the Wild Rift team that had a lot of fun trying a new thematic approach. The rest of the year will see the devs move on from Shadow Isles and straight over to Piltover, just in time for Arcane Season 2.
Patch 5.2: Hex Rift will offer a treasure trove of new gameplay goodies. Baron Nashor’s nest will get an upgrade and turn into a new Hextech Lab. After defeating the monster, T-Hex Mecha will spawn at your base, granting new abilities. Rift Herald goes on a much-deserved vacation as well. Instead, Hextech Guerrilla Turret or Hextech Mimic will be taking the place.
