The wait is over for fighting game fans and the League of Legends universe. Riot Games has confirmed that 2XKO will be available in Early Access starting October 7 on PC, bringing the closed beta phase—which caused great anticipation in the community—to an end.

This Early Access marks the debut of the game's first full version, with progress and rewards that will be maintained throughout the entire lifecycle of 2XKO.

The arrival of 2XKO in Early Access introduces a series of new features:

Inclusion of all champions presented so far, with the addition of a tenth playable character.
Implementation of the Battle Pass, which allows players to unlock skins, emotes, and other cosmetic extras.
Availability of the Combo Trials feature, designed for players to practice special moves and attack combinations.
Guaranteed progression: unlike the beta, there will be no account resets and everything unlocked will be preserved.

First Impact competitive program

One of Riot Games' main focuses with 2XKO is boosting the competitive scene. For this reason, along with Early Access, the First Impact program will be launched, which will sponsor 22 community tournaments between October 2024 and the end of 2025.

Each event will feature additional financial contributions (pot bonus) and special rewards for the best duo, in line with the central 2v2 combat mode.

The program will officially debut at Evo France, from October 10 to 12, where Riot Games will organize exhibitions and live matches, reinforcing its commitment to the fighting game community.

A game for fans and new players

Beyond the competitive aspect, 2XKO aims to be an accessible and entertaining experience for all audiences. The game will allow ranked matches, online encounters, and local duels, whether in 1v1 or 2v2 format.

Riot Games has detailed that the title will have an annual calendar of five seasons, which ensures a constant flow of new champions, features, and exclusive content. Additionally, it will incorporate assistance and practice tools for beginners, while still offering depth for more experienced players.

With this launch, 2XKO seeks to establish itself as one of the major fighting game offerings in the coming years, combining competitive appeal with the richness of the League of Legends universe.
