TFT Lore & Legends Patch 16.1: Unbound Ahri, Blood Moon MF & Cosmic Lux Arrive December 3rd

The wait is almost over, tacticians! Riot Games is about to drop the first major content wave for TFT's Lore & Legends set, and it's packed with enough style and substance to make any collector's heart race. Patch 16.1 goes live on December 3rd, bringing a treasure trove of new cosmetics that let you explore Runeterra across different eras while flexing on your opponents. Whether you're a fan of flashy K/DA performances or dark cosmic entities, this release has something to match your vibe.

**Unbound Legends Take Center Stage** First up are the headline acts: Unbound Tacticians. Riot has reimagined two iconic skins through the dazzling Unbound lens. K/DA Ahri Unbound brings her pop-star energy to the Convergence, ready to take any foe "down, down, down, down, down" with her revamped animations. For those who prefer raw power over pop beats, God King Darius Unbound enters the fray. His finisher and emotes emphasize his role as a bringer of true carnage, letting you live out the ultimate resetting executioner fantasy with back-to-back Finisher animations. Both of these premium Tacticians will be available exclusively in Treasure Realm banners from their December 3rd launch until January 8th, giving you a limited window to add them to your roster.

**Chibi Champions Embrace the Darkness (and the Prestige)** If your aesthetic leans more towards the mystical and menacing, the Chibi lineup has you covered. We're getting an all-new look for Chibi Miss Fortune that trades her usual swagger for Blood Moon devotion. Prestige Chibi Blood Moon Miss Fortune will be raining down an excess of bullets (and style) upon her enemies, available as a Prestige pick-up in the Rotating Shop from December 3rd to January 8th. But maybe you like it even darker? Chibi Dark Cosmic Lux is arriving to "turn out the lights in your lobby and the entire galaxy." This cosmic entity will be in the Rotating Shop until the end of patch 16.1, but a crucial note for collectors: her specific banner will depart on December 16th, so don't sleep on this one if you want to guarantee your acquisition.

**Arenas, Booms, and the Lore & Legends Pass** Your battlefield is getting a major upgrade too. Two new Arenas will let you fight in iconic locations: the Noxian afterlife of the Fields of Volrachnun (an homage to the 'Blood Sweat & Tears' video) and Le Cafe De Paris, a cozy modern cafe celebrating the upcoming TFT Paris Open. Both Arenas are available from December 3rd to January 8th. They'll be the perfect stages to show off new Booms like 'Set Sail!' and 'Noxian Battering Ram.' The best way to dive into all this new lore-themed content is through the Lore & Legends Part 1 Pass and Pass+. The free Pass offers great rewards, but for 1295 RP, the Pass+ unlocks premium goodies like the Shuriman Overlook arena and the Hallowed Mist Portal. A quick heads-up from Riot: the originally shown Heartache Cuppy was actually the Void Siege Minion in disguise—apologies for any confusion!

**Bundle Up and Claim Your Rewards** For those who want to go all-in, cosmetic bundles will be available to help you bundle up with Lore & Legends. And let's not forget the competitive players! If you fought your way to Gold or higher in either K.O. Coliseum Ranked or Double Up during the last set, your reward—Victorious Noctero—is waiting for you. This majestic owl Tactician is ready to hoot and holler in celebration of your rank. With so much content dropping at once, the launch of Lore & Legends on December 3rd isn't just a patch; it's a full-scale invasion of style. It's time to lock in your favorite loadout, from your Unbound Tactician to your new Arena, and dive deep into the history of Runeterra in the most fashionable way possible.
