We’re entering the finale of the 16th season of League of Legends, and this all this said, it doesn’t appear Riot is going to stop anytime soon with the patches.
However, before we arrive there, we have the holiday season coming up and we're going to run over what we know about RIot releasing the Winter map this time around.
Here's what we know.

When Is The Winter Map Returning To League of Legends? Answered
The next League of Legends patch is going to change up quite a few champions, alongside changing other elements of the game, as is the case with most LoL patches.
While champion changes are nice and all, there is a long awaited feature that is finally coming this patch, and this is the Winter Summoner's Rift.
Riot has now confirmed that indeed, the Winter map will arrive during the next patch on November 19th, 2025.
The Winter Map is coming back with an exclusive challenge!
