Wild Rift Patch Notes 6.2e

This patch we’re striking a balance between revving up some of our underperformers and cooling off the overachievers. Welcome to Patch 6.2e!
Game Updates
Wild Rift Game Design Team

They say summer changes everyone. One minute you’re laning like always, thinking the game will never change, then suddenly, the tide shifts. Buffs start to roll in like heatwaves from the hottest summer you experienced as a kid, knocking the breath right out of you and nerfs hit you like those surprise summer thunderstorms you and your friends get caught in on the way back to the beach.

Everything feels different in the summer… even the Rift. The meta’s getting a shake up, careful adjustments to bring harmony back to the chaos of clash and carry. And yeah, summer’s not a summer without a little glow-up. The Summer Party skins have also arrived and they’re bringing poolside charm and breezy confidence to the Rift.

It’s time to fall in love with your mains, your matchups, and maybe even the Rift again. Queue up and enjoy the salt air, summer breeze while taking down your enemies.

Reminder: content will be released throughout the patch.

CHAMPION CHANGES

This patch we’re striking a balance between revving up some of our underperformers and cooling off the overachievers. Champs that thrive in the early game like Urgot, Viego, and Pantheon will be getting a surge of power to help boost their tempo. While those who have been performing a little tooo well like Rammus, Ashe, Varus, and Karma we’re putting on ice and telling them it’s time to chill out. These changes should clear some of the fog on the Rift and cause a fairer fight across all roles.
