The new winter map puts a hat on the Baron and creates a Christmas atmosphere for the players of League of Legends.
If your account in League of Legends is a few years old, you probably still remember the winter map. The mainly green map was colored white and was a welcome change for the players. With the snow on Summoners Rift and the nice little details, this special map quickly became one of the highlights for fans. A new teaser video suggests that a winter map will be activated again this year. But this one has new details that you can see in the video.
Santa Baron Nashor sends greetings
With the new winter map, Riot once again fulfills a major wish of the community. The changes for the 2017 season already took into account many wishes like a sandbox mode or an integrated replay function. We show you these and other details in our overview of the League of Legends changes for the 2017 season. Currently, League of Legends is addressing almost all the points that previously began with “Rito PLZ.” With a video teaser, they are now showing what could await us in winter.
In the video, Snow Day Bard takes us into the magic of winter and shows how Summoners Rift can look in winter. For the absolute Christmas atmosphere, we recommend watching the video with sound on. It makes a greater impression when Baron Nashor appears in his pit with his Christmas hat. With little gifts scattered around the map, the developers once again prove their love for detail.
The WIP logo in the video suggests that the map is not yet complete and that some changes can still be made. How do you like the design of the map? Did the developers manage to create a Christmas atmosphere for you as well?
