Riot Games confirmed on July 12 that League of Legends Classic will launch on July 30 Japan time as part of patch 26.15. The mode brings back the summoner spell Revive and Rune Pages, which were removed or reworked over the game's 17-year history. The map uses visuals from the early 2010s. Rune Pages, which once required purchase, will now unlock with account level instead. The official site says players do not need to follow current patch notes; instead, the community can vote on which past elements to add next. League of Legends is free on PC.
