Riot Games has officially revealed the next League of Legends champion, and it appears to be a hotly anticipated launch. A new champion page for the character Zeri was recently added to the League of Legends site without notice. Although Riot has now removed the website in order to plan a more formal presentation of the figure, we’ve still caught our glance at Zeri.

Who is Zeri?
The Zauninte seems to have a peculiar bond with electricity according to the Zeri’s Universe site. She worked alone in a rebellion against the chem-barons of Zaun who were ruining her land, despite being born into a working-class family in the undercity.
Her electrifying charisma, however, was insufficient. But, her efforts spurred those struggling under the chem-barons to reconstruct their livelihoods. She was capable of capturing and channeling her electrical current, with the assistance of Entresol neighbors, into a firearm driven by feelings.
She also possesses a jacket that allows her to manage her superpowers. As per the League of Legends champion blueprint for September 2021, the current League of Legends champion will have a lot of keen conviction. Furthermore, she may be concealing more than strikes the eye under her veil.
Dexerto anticipates that the Spark of Zaun will have a character akin to Octane from Apex Legends. They’ll always be ready to go, driven by Zaun vitality.
There haven’t been any formal Zeri powers disclosed as of yet. Riot Games developers, on the other hand, have given us a glimpse at the route this “enthused” persona will go.
The release date for Zeri
Following the 12.1 leaks, Zeri’s launch is expected in LoL patch 12.2 later in January 2022. Riot’s lead champion producer Ryan claimed that the release was originally scheduled in late 2021 to coincide with Arcane’s debut event. However, “development changes” have since shifted that timetable further.
Riot will “remain faithful” to its goals, at the sacrifice of a 2021 release.
Because of all these production changes, the Zaun ADC will now be available “soon [this] year.” At the very minimum, we’ll receive Zeri before Arcane Season 2.
