The League of Legends Anima Squad event is bringing Riven some new pals, as additional champions unleash their own spirit animals. Here’s a rundown of all the new skins that’ll be released throughout the event, as well as the activities and rewards on offer.

Aside from the plethora of new cosmetics, there’s also the revamped Mythic Essence system, which is Riot’s attempt to solve the Prestige system’s problems with patch 12.6. Here is all you need to know about the League of Legends Anima Squad event.

League of Legends Anima Squad skins

The League of Legends has introduced a new skin line with costumes that have a distinct animal touch. Futuristic outfits with a unique animal flavor are included in the new skin line. Each hero has its own spirit beast ready to be unleashed.

  • Battle Bat Vayne
  • Battle Wolf Sylas
  • Battle Bunny Miss Fortune
  • Battle Cat Jinx

Riven is also receiving a Prime version of her Battle Bunny skin, which was originally released in 2012. The improved variation has a new high-tech bunny costume, keeping the classic carrot-style blade. Jinx will be getting the Prestige skin, swapping out the blue-and-black hues for white-and-gold with a hint of pink. The majority of the skins will be available for 1350 RP, with the Legendary Miss Fortune skin costing 1820 RP as an exception. The Prestige Jinx skin will set you back a further 2000 event tokens.

The League of Legends Anima Squad event has begun with the arrival of event missions. There are six batches of objectives. You’ll need to have the Event Pass switched on to obtain rewards, which means they’ll be behind a paywall.
