Hextech Chests are coming to Wild Rift

Throughout this year we've shared with you about how we're looking for new and unique ways for you to earn and purchase content. Over the course of our recent patches we've released a variety of new events, which have allowed you to earn goodies and free champions in various new ways. Something we've been exploring though is for a new and additional way for you to earn skins, so for some servers in patch 3.4 we're introducing something new.

Hextech Chests will be a new way to obtain unique skins and other goodies in Wild Rift. While not identical to League PC's Hextech crafting system, it will operate in a similar manner. You can buy keys that open chests and every chest will contain orange essence and might additionally contain skins, goodies, and exclusive skins to this Hextech chest system. We're also looking at different ways you can obtain keys just by playing, but we haven't finalized those details just yet. You can expect to learn more as we get closer to the launch on your server.

The launch timing for each region will vary, but you will start to see this system and its exclusive skins roll out on certain servers starting with this patch and expanding in future patches. We'll continue to update the system based on your feedback but you can expect the following to always be true: the value of every chests exceeds what you paid for it, there will be bad luck protection, and we'll publish the full loot table so you know what you are potentially getting before you purchase.

Over the next few days you can expect to see more information about Patch 3.4, but until then we will see you on the Rift.
