Riot Games is bringing another iconic League of Legends champion to 2XKO, and this time it is Thresh stepping into the arena.
The Chain Warden will officially join the free-to-play fighting game on June 9, arriving alongside the recently revealed Senna. Thresh’s addition gives 2XKO another highly recognizable League of Legends character, bringing his dark, spectral style and signature chain-based combat into Riot’s tag-team fighting game.
Known in League of Legends for his lantern, hooks, and ruthless control over the battlefield, Thresh seems like a natural fit for a fast-paced fighter. His moveset is expected to highlight his menacing range, crowd-control-inspired attacks, and aggressive pressure tools, giving players a new way to dominate opponents in close and mid-range combat.
The latest Thresh reveal trailer gives fans a fresh look at how the champion has been adapted for 2XKO. While League of Legends players know him as a support champion with terrifying playmaking potential, his fighting game version appears designed to capture the same intimidating personality while making him feel powerful in one-on-one and duo-based battles.
Thresh will not be arriving alone. Senna is also joining the roster on June 9, making the update especially exciting for longtime fans of League of Legends lore. The two champions share a deep connection in the game’s universe, and their simultaneous arrival adds an extra layer of fan appeal to the upcoming 2XKO roster expansion.
2XKO is Riot Games’ free-to-play fighting game set in the League of Legends universe. The game is available for PC through its own native client, as well as Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. With more champions continuing to join the lineup, Riot appears focused on building a competitive fighting game that appeals to both League of Legends fans and traditional fighting game players.
With Thresh and Senna joining the roster, June 9 is shaping up to be a major date for 2XKO players. Fans looking forward to new characters, fresh team combinations, and more League of Legends favorites in fighting game form will have plenty to watch when the update goes live.
