This is not a test run, folks! Exciting news about 2XKO has just hit social media, adding a delightful twist to this otherwise regular month. So, what’s the buzz all about? Well, we’re gearing up for an announcement about a future update video, but here’s the juicy part: soon, we’ll get a comprehensive update on the game Jinx, and the plans for the next Alpha Lab test.
Who’s bringing us this intriguing tidbit? None other than Ben Forbes, the editor-in-chief at 2XKO. He took to Twitter to spill the beans: “We just filmed the next 2XKO update! We’re in the midst of editing, producing, and localizing, but here’s what’s coming up: an in-depth look at our gameplay changes since Alpha Lab 1, including updates on Jinx, some context about Alpha Lab 2, and a showmatch featuring the dev team.”
As he continued, Ben mentioned, “This update gets quite detailed, so the video might end up being an hour long. We plan to release it during the last week of March. We’re not ready for a grand PowerPoint livestream yet, but maybe someday…”
Before you let your excitement run wild, note that Ben made it clear there won’t be any new character reveals in this update. So don’t place any bets just yet!
Flashback to last year—2XKO left us with a “See you next year” teaser, promising fresh updates in February. Instead, the game director, Shaun Rivera, took to Twitter to announce some alterations. This includes a shift in the scope of the next Alpha Labs test and a new twist for the game.
It seems the original timeline might have shifted internally at Riot, alongside revised plans for the Alpha Lab tests, pushing the anticipated February update to this month. Nevertheless, with the game still pegged for release this year, a detailed information dump on current developments and future expectations will be a treat for fans eager to see where 2XKO is heading next.
