As Wild Rift patch 4.4 is on the horizon, Riot has already revealed all the upcoming champions.
The prior patch, 4.3, was one of the best patches for Wild Rift this year. We have received many new champions, skins, mechanics, and even game modes in that patch.
Regarding champions, we received three of them. They are Nilah, Vladimir, and Hecarim. Furthermore, Vladimir now has new visuals for Wild Rift. Even though Hecarim’s splash art was changed on the PC version, his in-game model still looks the same. But now, as he is Wild Rift, we can see his new model in action.
As for mechanic changes, Riot has completely overhauled the Rune system. This new Rune system is very similar to the PC version but simplified.
Now, as patch 4.4 is right around the corner, Riot has released the patch preview for it. And in there, they unveiled all the new champions that are coming out in this patch.

Wild Rift Patch 4.4: New Champions
These three champions will be released in the next major Wild Rift update.
- Fiddlesticks
- Sivir
- Zyra
Fiddlesticks
Fiddlesticks is one of the most iconic champions in League of Legends. And now, he is making his debut in Wild Rift.
He is an AP assassin who excels at one-shotting groups of enemies at ease. And thanks to his skills, he can easily get from low to full health in one team fight. Additionally, with his ultimate, he can engage anyone in his range and fear them. He is strong in almost all stages of the game.
So, if you want to rank up easily in Wild Rift, then Fiddlesticks should be your main.
Sivir
Sivir is an ADC coming to Wild Rift in patch 4.4. She excels at long-range poking and self-sufficient carrying. Additionally, she also has a shield that can block enemy projectiles and spells. And if she successfully blocks a spell, then she will gain bonus mana. Furthermore, with Sivir’s ultimate, she and her team will gain bonus movement speed. Alongside that, Sivir will also gain a reduced cooldown on her abilities.
Though her early game is weak because of her lack of mana, she is still a great ADC.
Zyra
Zyra is one of the most popular supports in League of Legends.
In her arsenal, she can set up a small flower turret that will deal chip damage. Moreover, her crowd control is one of the strongest in the game. Not only that, with her ultimate, the radius which she can crowd control is also massive. On the right hand, Zyra can easily lead her team to victory.
Wild Rift Patch 4.4: Release Date
Patch 4.4 of Wild Rift is scheduled to release on October 24, 2023.
