14 DAY TRIAL // League of Legends will get a brand new Featured Gameplay Mode on February 20 in the form of Hexakill, which allows teams of six players to duke it out.
League of Legends is one of the most popular free-to-play games out there, taking the classic MOBA recipe and tweaking it in many different ways, while retaining the core 5 versus 5 mechanic.
Now, for the next Featured Gameplay Mode, Riot Games has confirmed that it's introducing Hexakill, a special variation of the core recipe but with teams of six players.
"For the next upcoming Featured Gameplay Mode, five to a team just wasn’t enough. We’re adding a sixth champ to each side on Summoner’s Rift. Same rules, same map, more champions," the studio said on its website.
"Double junglers, roaming supports and six man wombo combos are all on the table for this new mode. Experiment with team comps and discover new metas as you seek to hear the ultimate announcement, Hexakill."
Hexakill will go live in League of Legends on February 20.
