Author:Kristen Update:May 18,2025

LoL: Wild Rift Patch 6.1: Ascending Stars is set to launch on April 16th, promising a cosmic transformation that will elevate your gaming experience to new heights. Dive into the Dual Nova galaxy, where the Challenger’s Star and Adventure’s Star await, bringing an array of thrilling updates to the menus and the battlefield.

Prepare to welcome three new champions to Wild Rift, each with unique abilities that could shift the balance of power. Ryze, the Rune Mage, wields immense AoE damage and the ability to teleport teammates across the map with Realm Warp. Nocturne, the Eternal Nightmare, thrives in chaos, using Paranoia to engulf enemies in total darkness. Meanwhile, Zilean, the Chronokeeper, manipulates time, slowing down foes and even reviving allies with Chronoshift.

Several champions are also receiving significant reworks. Garen’s Courage now scales over time, making him more resilient, while his Judgment ability will now shred enemy armour. Ambessa transitions from the jungle to the Baron lane, with tweaks to her damage and life steal. Additionally, minor adjustments are coming for Diana, Fiora, Jax, Sona, and Kalista, ensuring a fresh gameplay experience.

Beyond champion updates, the new Bandle-inspired Rift introduces exciting changes to non-Ranked modes, featuring Enchanted Gifts that appear through portals during the laning phase. Mages are also in for a treat with the introduction of new items. The Bandle Fantasy item adds extra burst damage, Hextech GLP800 slows enemies with frost bombs, and Malignance enhances ultimate abilities, making spellcasters even more formidable.

Ranked mode is also receiving a major overhaul. The new season kicks off with the launch of the Challenger’s Star, bringing updates to the Ranked store and an easier way to earn seasonal rewards. Midway through the patch, the Adventure’s Star unlocks, introducing AAAARAM—a fresh take on ARAM with added augments and galactic visuals.

Don’t miss out on the Wild Pass, which introduces two stunning skins: Wondertown Twisted Fate and Battlecast Nasus. Twisted Fate’s new look marks the debut of an entirely new skinline, adding to the visual spectacle of Wild Rift.
