Big holiday gaming event from Riot Games – Soul Fighter in LoL, Wild Rift and more

The highly anticipated 2v2v2v2 mode, many new skins and more – what does the latest Soul Fighter event look like?


The time has come to reveal the details of the summer event, which is the most important and biggest event of the year. However, LoL developers are not limited to their most popular game. They have prepared attractions that will hit as many as 4 titles. Among them, you can find new modes, cosmetic additions, hero launches, and more.

The event will begin as early as July 20, 2023.

Soul Fighter in League of Legends

This summer will see the arrival of an event whose content inspired by the adrenaline and competitive intensity known from brawlers will heat up gameplay in League of Legends, Wild Rift, Teamfight Tactics, and Legends of Runeterra.

The alternate universe that Soul Fighter takes place within immerses players in a colorful and diverse world where competitors fight to prove themselves through combat on the world’s biggest stage, the “Tournament of Souls”. The tournament is a competition hosted by the mysterious God’s Eye where fighters with extraordinary abilities battle it out until there is only one standing.

 

“We’re really excited for the range of different experiences across the League of Legends ecosystem that make up the Soul Fighter event,” said Andrei van Roon, Head of League Studio. “Arena, Soul Brawl, and Tag Duel will let players experience League of Legends, Teamfight Tactics and Wild Rift, respectively, in new ways that we think bring something really fresh to the table. We can’t wait to see what players think once they get their hands on them.”
Players will get to experience all the action in the Soul Fighter event across four titles.
