First splash arts revealed for Crime City Nightmare and Phoenix LoL skins

A batch of new skins is coming to League of Legends in time for the v11.17 update, as Riot has unveiled the first splash arts for the Crime City Nightmare aspects, after being chosen as the winning theme from the 2021 global fan vote.

However, these won’t arrive alone, as three majestic skins for Xayah, Anivia and Seraphine are also in the works as part of a new skinline.

Pheonix is the other skinline, inspired by Chinese culture, these skins have bright colours and lots of plumage along with some jade stone details and god-like auras, making them seem like out of a mythical tale.

This set of skins will be released as part of the 10th anniversary celebrations of the Chinese super server.
