Wild Rift Patch Notes 5.1B, League of Legends: Wild Rift

League of Legends: Wild Rift

League of Legends: Wild Rift, also known as League: WR or just Wild Rift, is a mobile game made by Riot Games for Android and iOS. It's based on the PC game League of Legends. Like in League of Legends, players control champions with special abilities and fight against other players or AI.

The aim is to destroy the enemy team's Nexus. Each match is separate, starting with weak champions who get stronger by getting items and experience. The game's characters are inspired by different styles like fantasy, steampunk, and horror.

League of Legends: Wild Rift Gameplay

League of Legends: Wild Rift is a game where teams of players battle each other to destroy the enemy's base. Matches last around 15 to 20 minutes, shorter than the PC version. There are two modes: Wild Rift and ARAM. In Wild Rift, two teams of five players each choose champions and fight to destroy the enemy's Nexus.

Unlike the PC version, there are no inhibitors or Nexus turrets, and the Nexus can attack. The mode has a ranked ladder with different skill levels. In ARAM mode, players still fight in teams of five, but champions are chosen randomly. The battlefield is smaller, with only one lane, and there are no jungle areas or dragon and baron quests.

Overall, Wild Rift is a fast-paced game adapted for mobile devices, offering shorter matches and two exciting modes for players to enjoy.
