Riot Games TFT Gizmos & Gadgets: Neon Nights Art Blast

Hey Tacticians!

As we kick off Gizmos & Gadgets: Neon Nights, the TFT Art team is excited to bring to you a snapshot of all the fun creations and hard work that went into the latest mid-set update!

The first half of Gizmos & Gadgets posed a fun challenge for our team, as we wanted to add TFT’s unique spin to Piltover and Zaun as seen in League of Legends and Arcane. We wanted to open up arenas into some very new places, from the botanical gardens of Zaun to the bright lights of an esports arena. The set also brought a special opportunity for our Tacticians to celebrate Lunar New Year with new skins and the epic Golden Tiger Market.
The second half of the set came with its own set of challenges and exciting opportunities. For example, Neon Nights marks the first time an exclusive champion appears in TFT! We were such fans of Arcane that we asked early on about making Silco part of the game. The team is incredibly proud to bring him to life in TFT, and offer a unique glimpse of everyone’s favorite undercity crime lord. But more on that later.

Between new Chibi Champions, Little Legends, environments, and gameplay, our team worked very hard to bring this world to players. And now, it’s our privilege to share that work with fans and celebrate the heart and soul that went into making Gizmos & Gadgets: Neon Nights!
