I still remember the day I saw the League of Legends box on the shelf at my local CeX (it’s a second-hand media shop in the UK, yes, you pronounce it the C as an S). At the time, I thought, “What a stupid idea, a box for a free game.” I wish I had purchased it all those years ago; well, now you sort of can again.
League of Legends Classic Collector’s Box
So, the box itself comes with a bunch of stuff, including “Founder’s” versions of some of the classic skins. This includes the following digital rewards for League Classic and League Modern:
- Classic Season Pass
- Annie Champion Shard
- Alistar Champion Shard
- Classic Annie (Founder’s Goth) Classic Chroma
- Classic Alistar (Founder’s Black) Classic Chroma
- Goth Annie Modern Skin
- Black Alistar Modern Skin
- Resplendent Explorer Ezreal Portrait
- Can’t Chronokeep Me Down Emote
- Mighty Metagolem Emote
- Kayle Champion Shard
- Silver Kayle Modern Skin
- Classic Kayle (Founder’s Silver) Classic Chroma
The box also has some physical stuff, including the actual box:
- Classic Collector’s Box manual
- Totally Legitimate Runeterra map
- Classic Rune coasters
- Victory/Defeat reversible keychains
- Classic Champion Quotes sticker pack
This limited edition box retails for $89.99 and is being made to order by Riot Games for those who preorder. The orders are set to be fulfilled in December 2026, so there’s plenty of time before they get shipped out.
This is part of a larger collection of goodies people can buy to celebrate the release of League Classic. With the new game mode set to stay for the immediate future, it makes a lot of sense for Riot Games to cash in on the nostalgia, giving people a chance to get some cool limited edition stuff. For collectors, it’s also something they can leave sealed for 20 years and hope it’s worth double the money.
