Riot has done it. They've released the new skin trailer a day early, but are we mad? Not at all. Now we finally get a glimpse at the newest skin line that Riot has been working on – Empyrean. These skins are colorful and dark all in one and look like nothing we've gotten before.

Now we also have to check out the champions getting these skins. Is Riot finally giving Zilean a new skin? How much will they cost? We have the answers for you!

LoL Empyrean Skins: Which Champions Are Getting New Skins?

We've been spoiled with skins in recent patches and honestly, this one won't disappoint either with a total of eight champions receiving skins, and one prestige skin also getting put into the mix.

  • Empyrean Lux
  • Empyrean Jhin
  • Empyrean Pyke
  • Empyrean Vex
  • Empyrean Zed
  • Empyrean Zac
  • Empyrean K'Sante
    • Prestige Empyrean K'Sante
  • Empyrean Jax

K'sante's prestige skin was made in collaboration with Lil Nas X, making this the first collab between Riot and a musical artist. Yes, Riot has worked together with Louis Vuitton and Tiffany & Co for skins, but never an actual artist, so that will be quite exciting to see.

Upcoming Empyrean Skin Costs

These skins will cost 1350 RP since they are in the epic skin tier. Though the Pyke skin will be more expensive since it is going to be a legendary skin, which means you'll have to fork over a whopping 1820 RP.

The prestige K'Sante skin will also be more expensive, and you'll have to farm up tokens by playing League of Legends in the LoL Worlds 2022 event. You will have to choose whether you get the Prestige Spirit Blossom Master Yi or the Prestige Empyrean K'Sante skin with your tokens as well.

Empyrean Skin Release Date

The Empyrean skins will release in the next League of Legends patch, which will be LoL Patch 12.21. You're going to be able to pick up the skins in the client on November 3, 2022 since skins usually land in the shop a day after the patch drops.

So go out there and enjoy the upcoming K'Sante skin along with the brand-new League of Legends top laner. Have you seen his gameplay yet? Check it out right here and become a top lane main thanks to this unique champion.
