Everything we know about League of Legends Patch 11.7

A major League of Legends patch is coming very soon.

Patch 11.7 is the next Season 11 update for the ever-popular multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA). In addition to all of the balance changes updates like this always bring, 11.7 will also introduce the Space Groove skinline for several champions. Inverse revealed concept art for many of those skins earlier this month, and the rest of the update is looking promising.

Here’s everything you need to know about the League of Legends 11.7 patch.

When is the League of Legends Patch 11.7 release date and time?

Developer Riot Games’ support site lays out the schedule for the entirety of 2021, confirming that a big League of Legends update is scheduled for every two weeks this year. It confirms that Patch 11.7 is slated for March 31, 2021.

League of Legends also always updates at a specific time. For North American players, the update will go live a 6 a.m. Eastern. If you want to play on March 31, expect a little bit of downtime around when the update is released to all players. If you log on later in the day though, all of the changes should already be in place.
