Wild Rift Masters of the Hunt: Schedule, missions, rewards, and more

League of Legends: Wild Rift, Riot's mobile MOBA, has raised the bar for mobile gaming and nowhere has that been more apparent than in the game's events which offer players the chance to earn tonnes of rewards and new champions, all at no cost.

The next one to hit the rift is set to be particularly special as, from the event's outset, players will select one of two hunters to fight on behalf of; Rengar or Kha’Zix, the game's newest champions.

Players will represent their chosen hunter at the start of each match with a special team tag. Rewards will be unique to your chosen affiliation including which of the two champions you can unlock.

The event will also see the introduction of a new mechanic to Wild Rift and one that will continue long after the event - Nemesis Duels - a special mechanic that can be activated during regular matches and which will see two players, from opposites sides, face off in a mini-duel. The winner will be rewarded with special bonuses that will be in effect until the end of the game.
