Riot mentioned a while back that a secret VGU is coming and new leaks are saying that Viktor will get the VGU.
With Arcane Season 2 on the horizon, Riot is preparing for the TV series in more than one way. Different games of the same universe will get their shine as they introduce new characters and more.
We already know of Ambessa Mederda being the next champion in League of Legends and should be released around the time Arcane Season 2 rolls in. Also, Riot had already said there was going to be a VGU for a champion and that might be Viktor as new leaks suggest. Here is what we know so far.

Potential Viktor VGU
As per usual, the primary leaker of League of Legends, BigBadBear, unveiled this new piece of information. Also, it is always best to take a grain of salt as I personally do so.
However, it would be unfair to deny the possibility that Riot is looking in this direction. Considering Riot already ruled out Singed previously, there were not a whole lot of characters that would fit the description for Riot to have to change appearances due to Arcane.
Multiple characters for the TV series are accurately depicted with just Arcane skin versions coming out. Going down the line of Viktor getting the VGU suggests that they are looking to make changes to a champion that has had a lot of retconning with Arcane.
Hextech has changed in terms of lore and Viktor is probably going to follow suit. As it is expected to be a VGU, only the Visuals should change and the character abilities will remain.
But Riot has always reserved their opinions of changing up a few things but Viktor does not seem to need addressing on the gameplay front.
Again, this is a rumor and we very well could have a different character getting the VGU instead. For now, Viktor is the primary recipient as suggested by the leak.
