We actually got two surprises following the Worlds tourney. Not only did we get the announcement trailer, but a release window. Ruined King: A League of Legends Story will be out on PC in early 2021. The trailer even showcases the Ruined King himself. Alongside this, we get the official champions selected to be playable for this turned based RPG. From the champions shown, it appears that one popular champion from each class in League of Legends has been selected:
- Miss Fortune in her Captain skin seems to be the head of the team and the marksman/ADC
- Illaoi as the juggernaut
- Braum as the tank
- Pyke as the assassin
- Ahri as the mage
- Yasuo as the fighter
Ruined King lore drop
Earlier in the year, both Yasuo and Ahri were revealed to have left their home in Yone’s cinematic and were released to live servers. Now, we finally know why. They had been sailing for Bilgewater, the home of Miss Fortune, Illaoi, and Pyke. So far, no other details about the story have been officially revealed. But my guess is that our team of champions will be bringing a major ass-kicking to the Ruined King, who must have something to do with the state of the Shadow Isle.
Until more news comes out, enjoy the official announcement trailer down below:
