Riot Games Introduces League of Legends Avatar Creator
By Yunah Elsner
Riot Games just launched its League of Legends avatar creator where fans of the game can customize their own League-inspired avatar. After the release of its popular Netflix show, "Arcane," on Nov. 6, Riot Games has been creating several events to celebrate this new milestone.
The avatar creator event took off Saturday, shortly after the airing of the next act of Arcane. With the avatar creator, fans of League of Legends now have a fun, creative outlet where they are able to choose from a variety of different body shapes, facial features, hairstyles, outfits, accessories and more.
The world of Runeterra is right at your fingertips, are you ready to armor up? ?⚔??

After creating an avatar, Riot welcomes players to share their avatar creations on social media using the hashtag: #MyLeagueLook. Users of the new avatar creator are also able to download their character as a JPEG image that can be used as a profile photo. League of Legends fans have already been quick to share their unique avatars on Twitter and Instagram.
It is important to note that, although several customizations in the avatar creator are only obtainable through the League of Legend's game client, this new creator is available to everyone.
"Arcane" will continue to air new episodes weekly, followed by multiple in-game and community events. Through Nov. 20, League of Legends fans can expect more celebratory events, episodes of "Arcane" and updates before the 2022 preseason begins.
