All the skins earned via competitions will remain unique

Video game developer Riot Games is re-releasing some of its older exclusive character skins, which many fans believed would never be available again, in a move that’s designed to benefit the entire community.

Steve Mieczkowski, aka Udyr, states on an official blog that, “We believe skins are primarily about self-expression and fun, not exclusivity.”

He adds, “While it's important we solve this problem for the majority of players, it's equally important that we preserve value for those who do own these skins.”

Those long-term fans who already have the skins will get some vintage elements that show they have been loyal to League of Legends for a while and they will also receive Riot Points equal to what they have paid for the skin.

Only skins for characters that have been offered in the store are re-released and those that were earned via competitions will remain exclusive to those who have earned them.
