League of Legends (commonly referred to as LoL or League), the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) video game developed and published by Riot Games, recently celebrated its 15th anniversary on October 27th, 2024. Since its release in 2009, LoL has steadily built a dedicated fanbase and rich culture. LoL is also the world’s largest esport, with peak viewership surpassing 6.4 million viewers during the 2023 World Championship that took place in Seoul and Busan from October 10th to November 19th last year.
To mark the game’s 15th anniversary, League of Legends recently kicked off LoL Player Days on October 9th, 2024. The event’s main celebration was spread across three days: Creative Day on October 9th, Music Day on October 10th, and Esports Day on October 11th. Highlights of the event included real player stories illustrated by community artists, several Legacy skins from the vault, and ten days of rewards, among several other small tokens.
In more exciting LoL news, to celebrate the second and final season of Arcane coming up in November, Riot Games will be releasing new in-game content across its library of games. This includes Arcane-themed skins and cosmetics, such as a new Exalted skin-tier Jinx skin, Arcane Brawler Vi, and a new Jinx Nexus Finisher. In addition, the finals for the 2024 Season World Championship (Worlds 2024) will be held on November 2nd, so fans are in for an eventful month!
As of today, LoL now has an incredible 168 champions to choose from. Notable champions include Ahri, the Nine-Tailed Fox, who can consume her prey’s essence along with flashes of their memories; Briar, the Restrained Hunger, a living weapon created by the Black Rose; and Gwen, the Hallowed Seamstress, a former doll transformed and brought to life by magic.
