Hold onto your gaming chairs, folks! The gaming seas are buzzing with fresh news from 2XKO, courtesy of a recent social media update that’s adding some unexpected excitement to this month’s calendar. While it might be just an announcement about a future development update video, it promises some substantial details. We’re talking about insights into game modifications, updates on Jinx, and hints about the next Alpha Lab test. So, mark those calendars.
The source of this juicy tidbit? None other than Ben Forbes, the editor-in-chief behind 2XKO, who took to Twitter to spill the latest. He enthusiastically shared, “We just finished filming the upcoming 2XKO update! We’re still in the midst of editing, production, and localization, but here’s a sneak peek: expect a thorough exploration of our gameplay tweaks since the first Alpha Lab, details on Alpha Lab 2, and even a showmatch starring our development team!”
He continued in the thread, noting, “This is a truly comprehensive update, so it’s going to be a lengthy one (probably close to an hour). We’re aiming to release it during the last week of March. We’re not quite set for PowerPoint livestreams just yet, but perhaps someday…”
However, keep those character-based anticipations in check, as Ben also mentioned that no new character reveals are part of this update. So maybe hold off on placing any bets.
Reflecting on last year, when the 2XKO team wrapped things up with a “See you next year” note, they initially aimed for a February release of new details. However, game director Shaun Rivera stepped in on Twitter to reveal a few shifts in direction. This included a revamped scope for the upcoming Alpha Labs test and something intriguing called a new ‘fuse’ for the game.
It seems the internal schedules at Riot experienced a bit of a shuffle, pushing the anticipated February update back a bit. Despite this, anticipation remains high as the game is still set to launch this year. We’ll soon get a comprehensive update on the current progress, new projects under development, and a glimpse into where 2XKO might make an appearance in the near future.
