League of Legends: Wild Rift is heading to its first Regional Open Beta! All players in current Regional Closed Beta locales will have full access to the game, starting October 27 (PT)!

Welcome to the Regional Open Beta!

Previously only available to pre-registered players on Android, and a few lucky devils on iOS, Wild Rift will open on October 27 (PT) to everyone on both platforms in:

Indonesia
Japan
Malaysia
Philippines
Singapore
South Korea
Thailand

We’d also like to welcome players from Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Timor-Leste!

Next Up...

We’re aiming to start service in the following locations in early December (subject to change):

Europe
Middle East
North Africa
Oceania
Russia
Taiwan
Turkey
Vietnam

Following that, in Spring 2021, we’re planning to start service in the Americas.

(All other regions will come later.)

Patch 1.0

Before the Regional Open Beta drops, we’ve got a whole bunch of new stuff coming in the 1.0 patch, starting October 22 (PT).

Lee Sin

Lee Sin, the Blind Monk, is jump kicking his way to Wild Rift! One of League’s most popular champs for nearly 10 years, he’s sure to add a new layer of depth and mastery to the jungle, offering unparalleled mobility, outplay potential, and tons of clips for the highlight reel.

Lee Sin will be available alongside Knockout Lee Sin and Muay Thai Lee Sin, so you can flex on your foes in style.

Champ Previews

We’re also rolling out a test phase for six new champs who will be fully released at a later date. We need your feedback and testing on these champs specifically, so they’ll be free to play between Oct 22 and Oct 27 (PT). Feel free to spam as many games as you can so we can crush those last few bugs:

Akali, the Rogue Assassin
Darius, the Hand of Noxus
Draven, the Glorious Executioner
Evelynn, Agony’s Embrace
Kai’Sa, Daughter of the Void
Seraphine, the Starry-Eyed Songstress

In-Game Rewards

In South Korea and Japan, players can log in using their existing Riot Games accounts and earn rewards based on their time and monetary investment in League of Legends on PC (more info coming soon). For the other regions in the Closed Beta who may not have Riot accounts yet, you can create and link a Riot Account, and earn rewards like champs and skins later in the year.

Road to Wild Rift

To honor the legacy and history of gaming in each Open Beta locale, we’ll release locally-tailored content every day on the road to Open Beta. Influencer spotlights, guides, and community highlights—you’ll have everything you need to get Rift-ready! Keep an eye out for Road to Wild Rift content to come!

One MORE Thing...

It’s time to go ALL OUT. The stage is set for the end of October.
