Riven Gets the Chibi Treatment
The popular fighter champion Riven is the latest League of Legends character to receive the chibi makeover, joining the growing roster of miniaturized champions in Riot's MOBA. These stylized versions feature the same combat abilities as the standard Riven but with an undeniably charming aesthetic that transforms the normally fierce warrior into an adorable pocket-sized fighter.
The new release includes two variants: the base Chibi Riven skin and the more elaborate Chibi Dawnbringer Riven, giving players options for how they want to "slice and dice the competition" with these diminutive versions of the champion.
What Makes These Chibi Skins Special?
The Chibi Riven skins maintain the champion's iconic broken blade and combat animations while reimagining them with exaggerated proportions and cute visual effects. The Dawnbringer variant incorporates elements from the popular Dawnbringer skin line, combining celestial themes with the chibi art style for a unique visual experience.
These skins continue Riot's successful formula of creating highly stylized versions of popular champions that appeal to players looking for more lighthearted cosmetic options in the game.
