League of Legends: Wild Rift patch 5.0c notes, including Kindred & Nautilus Pass

The latest patch for League of Legends: Wild Rift, patch 5.0c, features a new Champion in Kindred and a whole host of other changes.

From events like the Nautilus Pass to a rework for Wukong, this is a substantial patch that should change the game up quite a bit. We've got all the changes listed below, so keep reading for all the new additions!

New Champions and Events in Wild Rift patch 5.0c

Kindred, the Eternal Hunter

Separate, but never parted, Kindred represents the twin essences of death. Lamb's bow offers a swift release from the mortal realm for those who accept their fate. Wolf hunts down those who run from their end, delivering violent finality within his crushing jaws. Though interpretations of Kindred's nature vary across Runeterra, every mortal must choose the true face of their death.
