League of Legends has released the cinematic for the new season, set to launch on April 30. Here’s a look at all of the characters revealed in the video.
In a stunning animated cinematic bridging the spirit realm and the real world, League of Legends unveiled the trailer for the second season of 2025. Iconic champions emerged to reveal the next chapter in the Spirit Blossom saga, marking the arrival of the highly anticipated second wave of the ethereal skin line. According to the last cinematic of Season 1, we're now entering the second Noxian Invasion of Ionia.
All the characters in the new LoL cinematic
Ashe
Even though Ashe is not from Ionia, she will be one of the characters receiving a brand-new skin from the Spirit Blossom line. She appears in League of Legends' newest cinematic using her E ability, where she releases a bird to gain vision on the map.
Ivern
In the cinematic, we also get to see Ivern and his ultimate Daisy in the landscape. Ivern, who is half-man and half-tree, was identified as one of the characters leaked a few days ago to receive a new skin in the next season. His iconic pose is seen with Daisy in the background.
Xin Zhao
Xin Zhao was born in Ionia, and he is the main character of the newest League of Legends cinematic. We see him interacting with both the kids and the nature of Ionia. In the end, we see him touching a dark lotus, which might symbolize the omen of an enemy approaching Ionia, just like we know it is going to happen in the second Noxian Invasion.
Nidalee
Nidalee is also one of the next Spirit Blossom characters. She appears in her puma form, which is her ultimate, and uses her W when she jumps and appears to slash reality. At first sight, at the bottom of the river, it might not be so obvious, but the animation following that scene proves Nidalee's presence.
