League of Legends developer Riot Games is opening its newest season with a whole new theme: Pandemonium. As part of Season 2, Riot Games will release a new set of skins for champions Annie and Kindred based around the theme. These skins will drop with Patch 26.09.
Both skins share the Pandemonium theme of nightmare-like carnivals, but they completely alter the champions’ appearances.
Splash arts and design
A darker approach was taken with Annie’s Pandemonium skin. Red, orange, and pink demonic hues cover her. Small horns protrude from her head, and her eyes glow menacingly.
Her Tibbers even becomes mutated into something straight out of a nightmare; he looks less like a plush companion and more like teeth wrapped around lava.Kindred’s skin takes a much more ethereal approach.
Bathed in purples and blues, ghostly wisps of energy dance around him. He doesn’t feel as malicious as Pandemonium Annie; he feels like he’s straight out of a nightmare. Where Annie is destruction and rage personified, Kindred takes on more of a haunted specter vibe. Both skins excellently portray two sides of the same cursed coin.
Release Date
They are both being tied to Patch 26.09 which is currently set to release around April 29th, 2026. However, Riot has confirmed that Patch 26.09 will be the start of the Pandemonium Act I event skin.
This means Annie and Kindred will be playable at the start of this seasonal event.We don’t have an exact store time yet, however they should release within a few hours of the patch going live.
Price
As usual, Riot hasn’t confirmed what tier these skins will be. However, it’s looking very likely that both of these skins will be Epic. If that is true, then we are expecting them to cost around 1350 RP.
This is expected due to their added features of having custom models, visuals, sound effects, and animations.
