The 2024 Anima Squad event is officially set to launch on Wednesday, July 17. With so much new content on the horizon, players can look forward to an exciting and action-packed summer in League of Legends.

With the Mythic Essence serving as a hybrid of its predecessors, players now have the opportunity to acquire Prestige Edition, Hextech, and Mythic skins directly from the Mythic Shop, with the entire inventory undergoing rotation on a monthly basis.

Patch 14.9 Mythic Shop rotation

Skins

Currently, the Mythic Shop boasts a selection comprising 5 Prestige skins, 2 Hextech skins, and 1 Crystalis Indomitus skin. However, the offerings don’t stop there, as players can also expect to find rotating accessories aligned with the thematic essence of the new Crystalis Motus skins.

Accessories

Additionally, accessories associated with Crystalis Indomitus Kha’Zix will also make their appearance, enhancing the diversity and allure of the shop’s offerings.

Patch 14.10 Mythic Shop rotation

To add to the excitement, the Mythic Shop promises regular updates with 2 Prestige skins cycling in and out every month. Furthermore, players can anticipate the rotation of 2 older Hextech skins alongside a new Mythic skin every three months, ensuring a steady influx of fresh content to explore and acquire.

When it comes to pricing, skins within the Mythic Shop vary in cost depending on their unvaulting history. Prestige skins are initially priced at 125 ME for their first appearance, with subsequent unvaults seeing an increase to 150 ME for the second, and 200 ME for any subsequent appearances thereafter.

Similarly, Hextech skins are priced at 100 ME for their debut, with subsequent appearances fetching 125 ME, providing players with a dynamic pricing model that rewards early adoption while maintaining accessibility for repeat purchases.

The next rotation of the Mythic Shop is slated to coincide with the launch of League of Legends’ new patch 14.10 on May 15, 2024.

Diverging from last year’s event, which unveiled the captivating Inkshadow skin line, this year’s Mid-Season Invitational will forgo introducing its own distinct skin line, opting instead to reintroduce the dimension-defying Empyrean skins.

This decision promises players another opportunity to immerse themselves in the cosmic clash of darkness intertwined with neon-glowing stars. 6 new champions are poised to make their entrance into the cosmic universe of Neon Strata, with the Righteous one, in particular, debuting a Prestige edition of her skin.

Scheduled to kick off on May 1, the 2024 event heralds the resurgence of the Empyreans within the League universe, ushering in a fresh array of champions to join the cosmic fray.

Nocturne, Varus, Brand, Malzahar, Akali, and Kayle emerge from the depths of the universe, donning their Empyrean forms ablaze with celestial energy. Kayle, in particular, ascends to newfound levels with the Prestige edition of her Empyrean skin, embodying divine power in a manner never before witnessed.

From the sleek cybernetic designs to the mesmerizing glowing motifs, the Empyrean skins promise a visual spectacle for players eager to once again embrace the cosmic clash of champions. However, for those who opt to forgo this iteration of skins, Riot Games has an assortment of other cosmetics poised to grace League’s client.

The highly anticipated debut of the new Empyrean skins took place on April 16 on the PBE servers with their official release slated for May 1, perfectly timed to coincide with the return of both Arena and MSI, ensuring players are fully equipped to adorn their favorite champions in cosmic splendor as they venture into battle.

These skins are a nod to the game’s earlier days, when Riot Games frequently introduced creative and playful skin lines that captured the community’s imagination. As we edge closer to April, Riot Games gears up to unveil a new set of skins designed to inject humor and light-heartedness into the game, continuing a tradition that has given players unique and entertaining ways to enjoy their favorite champions.

In the past, Riot has embraced the spirit of April Fools’ Day by launching playful skin lines, such as the memorable Cats vs Dogs series, which offered champions delightful cosplay options.

This year, Riot is looking to up the ante by catering to the community’s long-standing requests and introducing some unexpected surprises. The announcement has already started on a high note with the early reveal of the much-anticipated Choo-Choo Ornn skin, fulfilling a popular request from the player base.

But the fun doesn’t stop with Ornn. Riot is expanding the April Fools’ Day revelry to include four additional champions, each set to receive their own unique, food-inspired skins. These new additions to the League of Legends cosmetic lineup feature Cho’Gath, Rammus, Zac, and Twitch, promising a smorgasbord of gastronomic delight that will surely add a new layer of enjoyment to the gaming experience.

These delectably designed skins are slated for release on Wednesday, April 3, 2024, as part of the game’s patch 14.7.

The year 2024 started off with what many consider to be one of the best Preseason updates in recent years. Moreover, Riot has been steadily expanding their collection of skins with each patch, introducing over 20 new skins thus far. Some of these skins have been accompanied by new events.

Typically, skins and events are unveiled shortly before their release in a patch. However, a significant leak has provided insight into what skins and events players can anticipate in the coming months.

2024 leaked skins and events

According to leaks by Big Bad Bear, here’s a glimpse of the leaked skins and events set to arrive soon. It’s important to note that not all mentioned skins are confirmed with absolute certainty, so it’s wise to approach this information cautiously.

Blood Moon

The highly anticipated return of the Blood Moon skin line is on the horizon after a nearly four-year absence. Riot has teased this skin line in the Season 2024 Look Ahead video. Additionally, Zyra has been revealed as part of the upcoming Blood Moon 2024 skin line.

High Noon

Following Blood Moon, the High Noon skin line is set to make its comeback. However, specific details about the skins in this line are yet to be revealed. The release of the High Noon skin line is slated for Patch 14.6. According to leaks, a Prestige skin for Evelynn is expected to accompany this patch.

Faerie Court

Faerie Court is another skin line rumored to debut after Blood Moon and High Noon, although an exact release date remains unknown.

PROJECT

PROJECT is making a return this year, featuring the confirmed PROJECT Naafiri skin.

MSI

Similar to past MSI events, a new MSI skin line is in the works. Additionally, this new skin line will introduce a brand new Prestige skin for Kayle.

Throughout the years, Riot Games has consistently raised the bar with the release of legendary skins for League of Legends, with major skin launches often featuring Legendary or higher-tier options.

Within the Heavenscale skin line, Lee Sin will occupy the Legendary tier, and it will boast not only the base Legendary version but also an additional Prestige Edition. This effectively translates to two Legendary skins within this particular line.

In the base Heavenscale Lee Sin skin, his hands take on the appearance of golden claws, complementing a striking red robe with multiple jade accessories. Notably, a large black ribbon conceals his eyes, and all of his abilities are accompanied by a resplendent gold-colored effect.

The Prestige Edition of Heavenscale Lee Sin introduces distinct visual elements, featuring purple claws and an overall purple hue to his abilities. Lee Sin dons a regal purple robe with a white ribbon covering his eyes, and his accessories are enhanced with an orange hue.

Despite the uniqueness of the Prestige Edition, it has faced criticism for its perceived similarities to the original skin, especially when compared to other Prestige variants such as Jhin’s Dark Cosmic Erasure.

Acknowledging the critiques and seeking to enhance the distinctiveness of the cosmetic, Riot Games has announced plans to introduce captivating elements to his skin Notably, the Prestige Edition will receive unique effects to further distinguish it within the League of Legends cosmetic landscape.

Specifically, according to SkinSpotlights, upon Lee Sin defeating the elemental dragon, a captivating dragon-killing mark will be left in the cave, accompanied by the release of a majestic dragon into the air.

To address the criticism and justify the pricing associated with the variant Mythology, Riot Games is making concerted efforts to invest in both design and effects. These innovative additions represent Riot Games’ proactive approach to enriching the player experience and ensuring that fans find added value in their skin purchases.

Traditionally, Riot releases a patch a few weeks before the Lunar New Year, introducing a new skin line to commemorate the occasion. In the previous year, players were treated to not one but two exciting skin lines: Mythmaker and Lunar Gods.

This year, in keeping with the trend, Riot is set to release 2 unique skin lines for the Lunar New Year celebrations. One of these is the captivating and brand-new Primal Ambush skin line.

In the universe of Primal Ambush, champions undergo a transformation into ancient tiger warriors. It’s worth noting that, even though the year of the tiger was celebrated in 2022, the release of tiger-themed skins in 2024 is sure to be a thrilling surprise for fans.

The aesthetic appeal of the Primal Ambush skins is not to be underestimated, with intricate designs that echo the popular Inkshadow skins from the previous year.

While the official splash art is yet to be revealed, early glimpses suggest that champions embracing the Primal Ambush theme have undergone a transformation into cat-like creatures. The battle-worn and torn features on their outfits only serve to accentuate their fierce and primal nature.

The Heavenscale thematic, set to debut around February in celebration of the Lunar New Year, promises a departure from contemporary styles. Instead, it will showcase beautiful designs inspired by “ancient historical divinities,” offering players a unique and culturally rich aesthetic.

On the other hand, the Primal Ambush universe seamlessly blends the fierce world of martial arts with the majestic power of ‘primal’. With carefully selected color schemes and designs, Primal Ambush pays homage to the Southeast Asian regions, promising an immersive and visually striking experience.

In addition to these new universes, Riot is set to revive three existing skin lines: Faerie Court, Blood Moon, and the ever-popular PROJECT line.

Faerie Court, introduced last year with Winged Reign, enchanted players with its magical designs for champions like Milio.

Blood Moon, a beloved skin line since its inception in 2016 with Yasuo, has evolved into a complete Moons of Ionia universe, incorporating Snow Moon skins into its lore. The PROJECT universe, with its Cyber Pop, PROJECT, and Program skins, continues to flourish, featuring an impressive roster of 31 champions.

Excitingly, Riot also revealed plans for Prestige skins during the first half of 2024, set to drop for Rakan, Ezreal, Kindred, Evelynn, and Kayle in that specific order. The second half of the year will bring another set of Prestige skins, with details to be shared as the year progresses.

The culmination of these efforts resulted in a staggering 147 skins for players to choose from, marking a pinnacle in Riot’s commitment to keeping the in-game aesthetics fresh and exciting.

As the community eagerly anticipates 2024, these skin leaks have emerged as a curious parting gift, offering a sneak peek into the skins that may grace our screens in the coming year.
