Riot plans a broad League of Legends overhaul for 2027.

At the 2026 League of Legends World Championship final, Riot introduced New Dawn with a trailer that sketches the scale of the change. The trailer shows a redesigned champion-selection screen and a new look for Summoner’s Rift, alongside updated minions and redesigned dragons and Baron Nashor. The footage also seems to hint at a new or reworked rune system and terrain-related gameplay changes, but Riot has not yet explained how much gameplay will change. The overhaul is scheduled for 2027, with a fuller presentation expected in January.
