What you need to know:
- Vendetta arrives July 31, 2026, with rivalries at the forefront. Centered on iconic rivalries across Runeterra, Vendetta’s champions include Nasus, Renekton, Akali, Mel, and Ambessa.
- Vendetta will introduce champions representing Fury and Calm (red + green), Mind and Body (blue + orange), and Chaos and Order (purple + yellow) for the first time in Riftbound, adding new opportunities for creative deckbuilding across domains.
- With Origins laying the foundation and Spiritforged and Unleashed expanding that groundwork, Vendetta marks the beginning of a new standard for Riftbound sets with nine champions per release. This focused approach allows for deeper exploration of each champion’s archetype, stronger thematic cohesion, and more expressive deckbuilding possibilities moving forward.
- Riot Games revealed a first look at the Zed vs. Shen Showdown Decks, Riftbound’s first two-player preconstructed champion decks. All of the cards in the Zed vs. Shen Showdown Decks can be found in regular booster packs.
- Each box includes:
- Two complete 56-card preconstructed decks (40 cards + 12 runes, 1 Champion Legend, 3 battlefields per deck) and two Vendetta booster packs.
- Vendetta expands Riftbound’s premium and collectible offerings with more than 50 Showcase cards and a special Showcase series spotlighting rival duos, including fan favorites like Vi and Jinx and Jayce and Viktor. Vendetta products include Display Booster Boxes ($119.99 USD MSRP for a set of 24 packs), Champion Decks ($19.99 USD MSRP), four champion-paired playmats, and rivalry-themed art sleeves.
- Introduced in Riftbound: Unleashed, the Vault also returns as a key pillar of Riftbound’s expanding lineup. The Vendetta Vault contains six booster packs, 36 basic runes, three double-sided full-art promo tokens, and a reusable storage box.
- Riftbound: Radiance releases October 23, 2026, exploring brilliance and creativity across Runeterra. Evelynn joins previously revealed champions Ekko and Seraphine. Following their introduction in Vendetta, Radiance will also feature its own Showdown Deck product, starring Seraphine and Evelynn.
