2XKO Closed Beta Announcement

Hey everyone. It’s been a while since you’ve heard from us, but today we’ve got a big update to share. Closed Beta is coming to PC soon—and once it starts, 2XKO will stay online. Thanks for waiting, and we’re excited to show you what’s next.

2XKO Closed Beta 

2XKO’s Closed Beta starts September 9, available globally on PC. After Closed Beta begins, our goal is to keep the game online, outside of any necessary maintenance.

This is a huge step for us. We’ll be deploying our backend systems at a larger scale for the first time, so things might be bumpy at first, but we’ll improve as we go.

To get the game running in this timeframe, Closed Beta will only be available for Windows PC. We’ll support cross-platform progression, which means if you start on PC you can switch to console once it’s available and keep your progress. 

We’ll invite new players at the start of Closed Beta and while the beta is ongoing. Sign up at 2xko.riotgames.com/beta. If you played on PC in Alpha Lab 1 or 2, you're already in. If you played on console during either playtest, you’ll also automatically have access through the Riot Client on PC.

2XKO’s New Champion: Vi

Vi, the Piltover Enforcer, is hitting 2XKO with hextech-powered gauntlets. She’ll be available to play during Closed Beta and at our Evo booth.

Watch her reveal video to get a feel for what she’s all about, and look out for a deeper dive into her abilities soon.
