Anticipated 2XKO Update: Exciting Details on Jinx, Gameplay Changes, and More Expected This Month

Hold onto your controllers, because there’s fresh buzz about 2XKO that’s making this month way more exciting for gamers everywhere. The big news today? Well, it’s not groundbreaking, but we’re about to get an announcement for an upcoming development update video. Soon, we’ll finally have a detailed rundown on the game Jinx, and when we can expect the next Alpha Lab test.

Bringing us this promising news is none other than Ben Forbes, who is the editor-in-chief over at 2XKO. He teased the latest on Twitter, posting, “We’ve just wrapped up filming for the next 2XKO update! While we’re in the middle of edits, production, localization, and all that fun stuff, here’s what you can look forward to: an in-depth exploration of our gameplay changes since Alpha Lab 1 (yes, that includes Jinx!), plus some background and details on Alpha Lab 2, as well as a showmatch featuring the development team.”

And there’s more in his tweet: “It’s quite a comprehensive update, so the video is expected to be fairly lengthy—possibly around an hour. We’re aiming to release it during the last week of March. While we’re not quite ready to take the leap into the extensive world of PowerPoint livestreams, we’re getting there…”

But before you get carried away with speculation, Ben also mentioned that this update won’t include any new character reveals. So, don’t start placing bets on any new faces just yet.

Let’s take a trip back to last year when the 2XKO team bid us farewell with a “See you next year” message, hinting that new details would drop in February. Instead, we’re hearing from game director Shaun Rivera who recently tweeted about some changes. These include a shift in scope for the next Alpha Lab test and a freshly sparked enthusiasm for the game.

Seems like the internal timeline at Riot has shifted, which pushed the planned February update to this month, along with a tweak in Alpha Lab test plans. Regardless, with the game still on track to launch this year, it’s timely to get a dose of up-to-date insights on what’s cooking in the development kitchen and where we might see 2XKO pop up next.
