2XKO fiends will have to wait until February to hear what’s coming next in Riot’s upcoming fighting game

this 2XKO The team was on vacation, but they were already gone A nice little road map This is a great option for those keen to learn more about the game before leaving the office for a night of desserts and booze. In short, there will be an update in February, and players will have a chance to see it for themselves in March.

This fits with what we already know, which is that the next playtest will take place sometime in the spring of 2025. In addition to the game’s vague 2025 release date, many believe the upcoming playtest will arrive in March or shortly thereafter. 2XKO Editor-in-Chief Ben Forbes, Further reducing the time in this regard The “big beat” dropped in March “possibly later.”

On the face of it, this means we’ll have to wait a few months and more. But let’s have some fun, compile what we know, and speculate a little. The time has passed quickly until the final release date, although it remains a mystery.

we know Jinx is coming to the game via her gameplay trailer The game was released during the Arcane hype season, so it’s not a far-fetched assumption to say she’ll be playable in the upcoming playtest. In fact, developers have a history of releasing characters just to make them playable at the next possible opportunity. Yasuo was announced the day before Evo 2023players can try it out themselves, and Braum announced shortly before Evo 2024 and the first alpha lab tests.

Digging further will bring up some more exciting tidbits. Fighting gamer and content creator Diaphone was one of the few early influencers to visit the Riot Games offices to play Jinx, And revealed that he could try other roles Not yet announced. This is not unusual. Not long ago, Riot brought a large number of streamers to the office to try out pre-Evo 2023 versions. They can hang out with Yasuo and other figures like Blum who were hidden from public view at the time.

From this, one can hold out hope for new characters to be revealed in February. This is by no means a guarantee, but when you consider that we’re only a few months away from launch, and the game only has seven officially announced characters (And Catarina, she lives in this weird semi-diagnosed area) There has to be some real momentum if the game wants to reach a comfortable 10 character roster.

Other things that could be revealed would be a more specific release date/window, which would be nice. My personal bet is that a release window could be in the fall of 2025. Best of all, Evo 2025 is almost here. 2XKO attends events for a long timeso I wouldn’t be surprised if more information on the subject is hinted at.

So we begin another period of radio silence until more concrete information comes out. What do you think they’ll reveal in February? Let us know below!
