Over the years, League of Legends has experimented with game modes that break away from its core MOBA gameplay, which pits two teams of five against each other. Its latest effort in this sense is a noticeably different 2v2v2v2 mode, whose release date is likely of interest, if you dabble even slightly in Riot’s free-to-play title.
LoL’s 2v2v2v2 release date is, thankfully, not too far off now, being set to go live alongside the game’s Soul Fighter event, which brings a swathe of new content across all of Riot’s Runeterra titles.

In practice, this means that League of Legends 2v2v2v2 release date has been locked down to July 20, 2023.
It’s unclear at the moment whether the mode will stick around after the Soul Fighter event ends, but we should still have plenty of time to try it out, even if it goes away in late August.

As its name suggests, the mode revolves around four teams of two players duking it out in quick battles that span multiple rounds.
“The new 2v2v2v2 game mode is launching this patch and we’re excited for all of you to try it out! In the new Arena game mode, four teams of two players each fight one another in rotating combat rounds. After each round of combat, they will power up with unique Augments until only one team is left standing. Combat takes place on four different battlefields which vary in size, terrain density, and theme. Champions from the Soul Fighter universe will make occasional cameo appearances in matches. Sometimes they’ll help, sometimes not so much.” read an update from the official League of Legends website.
It’s all about champion-on-champion action, so you won’t have to worry about patiently taking out minions and coordinating attacks against fortified towers.
Augments allow you to define your build, granting access to a variety of abilities and summoner spells you may find familiar.
LoL’s 2v2v2v2 game mode is part the Soul Fighter event’s effort of acting as a tribute to fighting games.
Its release date should bring a blend of new and established elements, making our time with Riot’s MOBA even more exciting.
That is what you need to know about League of Legends 2v2v2v2 game mode and its release date.
