Wild Rift AAA ARAM Returns - Major Upgrades, Release Date & More

We all love the fast-paced chaos of AAA ARAM. The good news is that it will be back in League of Legends: Wild Rift sooner than you'd expect. We're just a few days away from the launch, and this time, AAA ARAM will be very different. Here's everything we know about the upcoming return, including the release date and the upcoming changes.

When Is AAA ARAM Returning?

AAA ARAM will be back on Wild Rift on July 31 at 00:01 UTC. It will be available through the end of the season. More content will be added mid-season, as promised by Riot Games.

New Augment Experience

One of the important changes in this Wild Rift AAA Aram update is a complete overhaul of the augment selection interface. It will now feature a vibrant Spellbook-inspired design.

New Augments & Augment Series

Now that augments are more central than ever, over 60 new cards are being added at launch, with even more coming mid-season. They will be grouped into series, each themed around a specific role or identity, such as Wild Bear, Roaring Lion, Sacred Doe, Shadow Wolf, Agile Cat, and Hunting Eagle. Later in the patch, other series like Sync-Up, Champion, and Blood Pact will also be introduced, offering deep strategic synergies and interactions for players to explore.

Spellbook Mechanic Added, Augment Enhancement Removed

Here's a huge change in Wild Rift AAA Aram - the Augment Enhancement mechanic has been removed. It's being replaced by the Spellbook ability selection, which takes place after champion selection. Players will now choose from three randomly presented Spellbook abilities. These abilities are further empowered by new Ultimate-synergy enhancement augments, allowing for explosive and unexpected combat moments.
