Earlier today, the mobile League of Legends experience finally arrived in the Americas as the open beta for Wild Rift made its way there. The good news reached the ears of eager Wild Riftfans in both North and South America with the following announcement:
The arrival of League of Legends: Wild Rift to the Americas coincides with the release of patch 2.2 of the game. The new patch brings more content to the game, such as the Position Preference feature and All Random All Mid (ARAM) mode. Note that the former is not available in the Americas open beta.
ARAM is a popular mode from the PC version of the game. For those who are unfamiliar, it forces all players into a single lane, leading to faster-paced gameplay with more team fights. However, ARAM is only going live in Wild Rift temporarily from 5th April to 8th April. Note that this is only a test and the mode will make its way into the game permanently in the future.
In addition, 5 new champions will join the roster of playable characters in League of Legends: Wild Rift. They are Renekton, Rengar, Galio, Rammus, and Kha’zix. Also, the game’s battle pass, Wild Pass, is finally in the game.
Dive into Wild Rift: the skills-and-strategy 5v5 MOBA experience of League of Legends by Riot Games, now built from the ground up for mobile. With smooth controls and fast-paced games, you can team up with friends, lock in your champion, and go for the big plays.

One of the last surviving breed of MacBook gamers, I have learnt to appreciate running games on the lowest graphics setting possible. Prone to crashing, both in-game and on the road. A fan of indie games, because I can't afford anything that is more expensive than a lunch. Follow me on Twitter or email me if you prefer.
