&#13;<\/p>\n<p>After the finals for 2XKO at Evo 2026 today, the developers decided to treat us to something special \u2014 namely a full reveal of the remaining characters for the game&#8217;s first season.&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n    &#13;<br \/>\n                &#13;\n                    <\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n               &#13;<br \/>\n        &#13;<br \/>\n      &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>It was shown that Lux, the Lady of Luminosity and Samira, the Desert Rose will be rounding out the first pass of characters for the League of Legends-based fighter.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\t  &#13;<br \/>\n\t&#13;<br \/>\n\t&#13;<br \/>\n     &#13;<br \/>\n          &#13;<br \/>\n     &#13;<br \/>\n     &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>We get some gameplay glimpses at Lux&#8217;s gameplay and as somone who used to main her many, many years ago when I still played League of Legends, she seems quite faithful to her old self.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Given her specialty is light magic, we see her wield it to set down traps and also shoot laser beams, much like she does in the source game.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Her sparkly personality also seems to be intact, so for anyone who&#8217;s a Lux enjoyer, they&#8217;re sure to be satisfied with what we see of her in this brief glimpse.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Lux&#8217;s full trailer will be debuting sometime during Fall of 2026, and likely will also show her release date.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>After Lux&#8217;s preview, we&#8217;re shown a quick glimpse of Samira, the next character in line after her, and while none of her gameplay is present, we do get a good look at her model.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an image gallery to show off some of Lux&#8217;s moves and Samira&#8217;s design.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br
