Here’s where we’ll explain everything that’s changing and being added with League of Legends Patch 11.7. League’s Patch 11.7 is now available on live servers after its usual two-week round of testing. A look at its patch notes reveals the release date alongside the addition of new Space Groove skins.
As reflected in its patch schedule, LoL Patch 11.7’s release date was set for Wednesday, March 31, which is when the changes that made it through testing hit live servers.
League of Legends Patch 11.7 comes with a set of eight new Space Groove skins. On the PBE, you’ll soon get to test Space Groove Blitzcrank (1820 RP), Space Groove Lulu (1350 RP), Space Groove Lulu Prestige Edition (2000 Prestige Tokens), Space Groove Lux (1350 RP), Space Groove Nasus (1350 RP), Space Groove Nunu & Willump (1350 RP), Space Groove Rumble (1350 RP), and Space Groove Samira (1350 RP). The turnarounds below showcase how they look in-game.
The LoL 11.7 maintenance schedule is always revealed closer to launch. Usually, it takes about 3 hours for patches to be deployed. Checking our League of Legends Server Status article is a good way to keep yourself informed on server downtime caused by patch deployment or other reasons.
Among the first tweaks to the newly added skins, Riot Games plans to add some more music variations to Lux’s E ability.
Hey folks! Watched lots of gameplay footage and realized Space Groove Lux's E needed more variations, so 2 more music variation on her E will be added! (Now up to 3 different space groove music!) Hopefully this helps reduce the feeling of repetitiveness. 💫✨ @moonstonesxo pic.twitter.com/Id3bRmbnf5
