Developer Riot Games have announced that Vi will be a playable character in the upcoming League of Legends fighting game 2XKO. Additionally, a closed beta test for the game will begin on September 9 for PC. 2XKO will launch sometime in 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC. A gameplay reveal trailer for Vi and a closed beta trailer were also released.
Riot Games commented on the beta saying:
“After Closed Beta begins, our goal is to keep the game online, outside of any necessary maintenance. This is a huge step for us. We’ll be deploying our backend systems at a larger scale for the first time, so things might be bumpy at first, but we’ll improve as we go.
2XKO details:
2XKO, formerly known as Project L, is a two-versus-two tag-based fighting game.

Ahri – The Nine-Tailed Fox. Ahri is a fox-like vastaya who can manipulate her prey’s emotions and consume their essence. She’s a highly mobile mage with tons of pressure tools at her disposal.
