League of Legends 2026: Role Quests Explained

[COSMIN]

Riot Games is improving role impact in 2026 with brand-new Role Quests that reward each role with powerful, role-specific upgrades.

The 2026 season of League of Legends introduces one of the most impactful systemic changes in years: Role Quests. Designed to improve role agency and long-term satisfaction, these quests reward players for doing what their role is already meant to do: farming, fighting, pushing, and securing objectives.

Each role quest is assigned during champion select based on your selected role. By completing objectives throughout the match, you earn points toward your quest, unlocking unique and permanent power upgrades that significantly influence how each role scales into the mid and late game.

All Role Quests & Rewards

Below is a complete breakdown of every Role Quest coming in 2026, including objectives, point requirements, and rewards.

This quest is designed to restore top lane influence, allowing winning top laners to impact the map and scale harder than before.
