With a new trailer titled "Made With Love," League of Legends reveals Gwen to be the next champion joining the roster.
Fans have been long awaiting a League of Legends champion by the name of Isolde since she leaked some time ago. Isolde plays an unexpectedly large in the storyline surrounding Viego, the Ruined King. Isolde is Viego's wife, but not much other factual information is known about her as it hasn't been confirmed by Riot yet. All that's currently known is that Isolde is dead and that she was a seamstress when Viego fell in love with her and decided to take her as his queen.
While this new champion isn't Isolde, the one fans have been waiting for, Gwen looks to be a creation of Isolde's. In the trailer, Isolde can be seen sewing a doll, Gwen, but in the next scene, Isolde dies and her soul splits away. This is likely the moment Viego becomes the Ruined King before one of these blue souls wanders and finds the doll, giving it life.
The description of the trailer implies that Isolde's soul found the doll after her death, but it's unclear that Gwen is currently being possessed by Isolde herself.
Only a silhouette of the new League champion is given briefly at the end of the trailer, but she's an AP top-lane Brawler. Her full kit has not yet been revealed by Riot, but it's expected that more details about Gwen and her ties to Viego will come in the following weeks.
League of Legends is available on PC.
