All New Items Arriving in 2026

Below is a complete overview of every new item revealed so far, including their intended roles and gameplay impact.

Scepter of Bonking

Designed for AP fighters like Diana and Gwen, Scepter of Bonking doubles your on-hit effects, effectively “skipping” a hit in passive stacks or accelerating ability-based combos. This is tailored toward melee AP champions who rely heavily on weaving auto-attacks between spells.

Emblem of All-Inning

A new Zeal-based item made for all-in ADCs. It grants ultimate ability haste and, after casting your ultimate, guarantees three consecutive critical strikes. If your crit chance was already going to proc, it instead rewards you with bonus true damage—making this item a deadly spike for champions who chain abilities into autos.

Blood Sphere

Perfect for light fighters and skirmishers, Blood Sphere grants AD, omnivamp, tenacity, and ability haste that scales with your bonus AD. After takedowns, omnivamp increases dramatically, enabling extended fights and multi-kill potential.

Assassin Item

This item finally gives assassins a way to close out games. After a takedown, your next attack on epic monsters or towers deals heavy damage over time based on your lethality. It also periodically gives true damage to a spell, helping assassins secure kills and convert leads into actual objectives.

Mananomicon

Mananomicon, which features the first new active item in a long time, allows you to enter an empowered mode where you consume more mana in exchange for increased damage, stronger shields and heals, and reduced cooldowns. All bonuses scale with your total mana, making this an ideal late-game purchase for high-mana mages.

Snowbow

Built for snipers like Caitlyn and Ashe, Snowbow increases your AD based on how far away your target is. After takedowns, it heavily increases attack range for cleanup potential, turning long-range laners into deadly late-game artillery.

Buff Engine

A new aura item for tank supports. After you slow or immobilize an enemy, your allies gain a large attack speed aura. Melee supports can maintain this effect far longer than ranged ones, encouraging proactive engages and frontline play.

Mantle of the Twelfth Hour

A new defensive item that triggers when tanks drop low. It grants a large heal-over-time that scales with bonus armor and MR, along with movement speed and tenacity. This lets tanks either re-engage or escape after taking massive bursts of damage.

Savior’s Manabell & Superbell

A two-item upgrade path for enchanters.
Manabell increases heal/shield power based on mana.
Once fully stacked, it upgrades into Superbell, which automatically heals your lowest-HP ally every second during combat—a powerful sustained healing tool for late-game team fights.

As for the release date, it will be arriving along with Season 1 of 2026, which releases in early January. However, you can test out these changes early in the PBE (Public Beta Environment) servers.
