‘Lunar Beast’ event for League of Legends: Wild Rift is now live

Everything you need to know.

League of Legends: Wild Rift patch 2.1 is now live and with it comes its biggest event to date. Coinciding with the Lunar New Year, the game will feature a limited-time “Lunar Beast” event, which will run from February 4 to March 3.

 

 

During that time, players can purchase skins in the store that are tied to the event:

  • Lunar Beast Miss Fortune
  • Lunar Beast Alistar
  • Lunar Beast Darius
  • Lunar Beast Fiora
  • Lunar Beast Jarvan IV
  • Lunar Beast Annie

 

The meat of the event though is at the HEADQUARTERS. Starting now, players can participate by completing challenges and level up all of the 5 ancient Relics, which are the items owned by one of the event’s five champions. Doing so will net you Lunar Tokens which will be used to unlock rewards that are only available during the event.

 

Below is a breakdown of  all the weapons as well as the objectives needed to get the Lunar Tokens. Except for the Lunar Bear, you can only choose and equip 1 weapon at a time (making the challenges active) but you can freely switch items as often as you want if you feel like you are having difficulty with a particular challenge.
