League of Legends 2025 Season 2 announced, kicking off with a new chapter "Soul Lotus Beyond Blooming"

Riot Games today officially announced the details of the first season of the League of Legends 2025 content model. The "Soul Blossom" theme, which is loved by players, will return in full this summer, and will be launched with a new chapter "Soul Blossom Beyond Bloom", bringing a series of heavy content including visual updates, gameplay innovations, new modes and new heroes.

Summoner's Rift will usher in a visual renewal, and the overall style will be more in line with the Soul Blossom worldview, creating a battle environment that is intertwined with fantasy, spirituality, and fantasy. In addition, a new interactive system will be launched in the game client (the specific details have not been disclosed yet), aiming to enhance the player's participation and immersion beyond traditional games.

This season will introduce several major gameplay adjustments, including:

• New boss mechanism: Thornbound Atakhan, integrates the previous generation mechanism and optimizes the "rose" and "petal" system to provide richer strategic rewards.

• The refresh of the Rift Herald is delayed, the difficulty is reduced, and the team's strategic window is improved.

• The Void Larva only appears once, the refresh time is delayed, and the rhythm is adjusted to be more in line with the current version rhythm.

• Automatic allocation of punishment: Automatically bind to the jungle position only to avoid incorrect casting.

• The auxiliary start will automatically have the "World Map" prop to simplify the start process.

The next patch will also see major improvements to the malicious damage and interference detection system, designed to punish disruptive behavior more effectively through automation.

At the same time, the new hero Yunara will join the battlefield in the later stage of the season. It is reported that not only her appearance design echoes the theme of Soul Lotus, but her background story will also be deeply integrated into the world view. The specific information is yet to be revealed later.

The biggest impact on casual players in this update is the launch of the new mode "Brawl". This mode adopts a 5v5 format and unfolds on a brand new map with Bandle City as the background. Traditional defense towers and resource points are removed, replaced by continuous advancement and fierce confrontation, with the goal of pushing your own soldiers into the enemy base.

Compared to Summoner's Rift, Brawl has a faster pace and simpler rules. It aims to provide players with a low-stress, pure combat environment, and is expected to become another popular mode besides "Arabic ARAM".
