2XKO Alpha Lab 2 Drops Ranked Mode, but EU Players Left Out

Mar 27, 2025 4:30 PM

The latest update for 2XKO, currently in its Alpha Lab 2 phase, brings exciting features like ranked lobbies, two new Fuses, and gameplay adjustments aimed at enhancing the player experience. Set for a test run from April 18 to 20 in Canada, the USA, and Brazil, this update will allow players to try out new features including the Juggernaut and Sidekick Fuses. These new mechanics offer unique benefits, allowing for strategic gameplay adjustments that cater to both novice and expert players. The introduction of ranked lobbies will help in matching players by skill, addressing previous concerns about unfair matchups. With increased clarity in controls and the introduction of mastery rewards, 2XKO continues to build anticipation ahead of its release later this year, although players outside the Americas will have to wait longer to experience these updates.

When will 2XKO's Alpha Lab 2 testing take place?

The Alpha Lab 2 testing for 2XKO is scheduled from April 18 to 20, 2025, specifically for players in Canada, the USA, and Brazil.

2XKO, also known as Project L, is a highly anticipated fighting game developed by Riot Games, known for its emphasis on character-driven combat and strategic depth. The game features well-known characters from the League of Legends universe, bringing them into a dynamic 2D fighting environment. With a commitment to creating an engaging multiplayer experience, the developers aim to cater to both fans of the franchise and newcomers to the fighting game genre, making its eventual release highly awaited.
