LoL Patch 25.06 Notes

Battle Academia Kayn, Rakan, Xayah, and Prestige Qiyana all go live on March 19, 2025 at 20:00 UTC.

Out-of-game updates

Vanguard will return funds (LP) to you if they find someone cheating during your game. Additionally, you’ll receive confirmation if the player you flagged received punishment.

The new Champion Mastery is out, but the final-final version will ship next patch. According to LoL devs, they’re still making tweaks to the color, texture, and audio of the emotes. You should be able to see the new one now though, just remember to press CTRL+6.

Your Shop is returning this patch!

Other changes in LoL Patch 25.06

New spawn music that Arcane fans need to keep an ear out for has been added. Throughout the game, you’ll be able to hear the Black Rose female choir, too.
