Latest - Live Today
After an awfully long wait, League of Legends Patch 12.9 is finally almost here. Make sure to get your game updated and ready because it is about to drop.
We now have the exact release time, patch notes and tonnes of information on the update. We just have to wait a little while longer to get in there ourselves. If you get in on time and it's not live just yet, shut down the game and try it again. Sometimes, it can take a little while for everything to get going. You will be met by downtime beforehand - letting you know it's on the way.
