League of Legends Season 2023 overview: all new skins, rewards, and champions
New champions are coming this season.

Here we’ll run down everything we know is coming in the new season so you can get straight to work.

These are all the biggest changes coming to League of Legends this year.

LoL Season 2023: All ranked rewards

As usual, there will be a number of missions you can complete for in-game rewards.

These are the rewards you can earn this season.

  • Two Hextech chests and keys
  • Six Icons
  • 3,000 Blue Essence
  • Eight Championship shards
  • Season 2023 Kickoff Icon and Season 2023 Icon
  • Mark Maker Ward skin

LoL Season 2023: All champion changes

We’re not sure of the exact details, but we have been told that a number of champions will see an overhaul this season.

Ahri’s ASU (art and sustainability update) is coming with her base, skins, VFX, splashes, and tails being completely reworked. 

We have been told this won’t have any gameplay changes, but it will dramatically improve Ahri’s look and design going forward.

Aurelian Sol will be getting a new ability kit for the Star Forger in their CGU (comprehensive gameplay update). 

Aurelian Sol is a unique character when it comes to gameplay, and this upcoming overhaul will hopefully keep that intact while making them a little easier to grasp.

LoL Season 2023: New champions coming this season

Two new champions have been announced for the 2023 season.

Milio is a male enchanter from Ixtal, and Naafiri is a female midlane Darkin assassin.

We don’t know much about their skills and abilities yet, but more should be released soon.

LoL Season 2023: All new skins

A number of new looks are coming in the 2023 seasons for champions as it kicks off. 

Kalista, Aurelion Sol, Ivern, and Kled will also eventually get skins later in the season. 

On top of that, a new Faerie Court skinline has been announced alongside the return of the Cats vs Dogs skinline.

Finally, the Lunar Gods skinline and Mythmakers skinlines are coming in patches 13.1 and 13.2, respectively.

Here is the full list of skins that will be available in those lines:

  • Lunar Empress Ashe
  • Lunar Guardian Kha’Zix
  • Lunar Empress Qiyana
  • Lunar Guardian Malphite
  • Lunar Emperor Thresh
  • Mythmaker Galio
  • Mythmaker Garen
  • Mythmaker Irelia (Legendary)
  • Mythmaker Sivir
  • Mythmaker Zyra
  • Prestige Mythmaker Sivir 
  • Prestige Porcelain Lissandra

LoL Season 2023: All changes in ranked play

Players have often been concerned about dropping down the ranks during LoL’s long seasons.

The two ranked splits will now have a ranked reset in between, which will offer rewards.

It will be less severe than the reset at the start of the season, but it will hopefully stop players who take a break from being demoted too heavily.
