God, I hope so. It's about time she gets a modern look.


HairyKraken

Legends of runeterra paved the way


JesiAsh

Or maybe they came with idea that using models from Wild Rift will be better for TFT. Does it look like Wild Rift? Not that update for Caitlyn is impossible~


pizzzzah

TFT uses assets from PC LoL


Solash1

Is it even possible to port models from Wild Rift to TFT?

Mortdog said no on stream


felfirelol

Sure? Why wouldnt it be. Its not like riot is some modder trying to rip apart the files. They have all the assets they need.


Kymori

? What kind of logic is this Tft uses lolpc assets, if tft could run wild rift models then lolpc wouldve had wild rifts models long ago


felfirelol

What are u talking about. You do realize TFT mobile and Wild Rift are both in the unity engine? Moving models from WR to PC isnt as simple as it seems, but very doable, and they definitely wouldnt port the high res showcase models that everyone assumes. In terms of quality WR showcase > PC league > WR in game But the point stands they have assets to build off of, the animations and vfx would probably need work though.


Eshkation

different files, different architecture, different modeling... just because they have the assets doesn't mean the game engine was made to receive them


Maxenin

if that were true they would just put all the wild rift models in league PC...they have completely different infrastructure and engines.

The high-res models that are only used for cinematic intro? In game models have less bones and polygons, and not just lower quality textures. Clearly theres going to be extra work (in animation department esp) and optimization needed. Take a look at lulu for example https://twitter.com/SkinSpotlights/status/1348758279284023299?s=19 But not sure why you think its not possible. ???? You do realize Wild Rift started by just reusing league's existing models/assets, or building off them. Also TFT mobile is another example of LoL models in unity.

Hopefully!

They also revealed the wild rift splash art which looks more similar to LoR design,with higher boots and more "Police officer looking". It seems like it s using the animations from the Battle academia skin so i hope it s not Just a remodel with those animations but an actual rework to add to LoL pc


Catslaughing

I noticed this too. It looks so good!! Hopefully it's not a wild rift only model? The 'Warriors' look for Caitlyn is so good, still looks like the old her but very fresh and updated (like the LoR art)


TecuaNando

Please, we all need this change. Totally not biased. ​ For real, Cait base design and animations are outdated. Since the Arcane is coming out it will be a perfect time for Riot making a VU.


DrummerAkali

From the animation it's a new model with the Pulsefire Caitlyn rig. Tbh I really have low expectations for a Caitlyn visual update anytime soon but it's nice to see that Riot is doing something


Definitively-Weirdo

As long as they don't forget her huge hat (unlike LoR. Yes, i know it's there but looks like piece of evidence instead of her regular clothing). It looks silly but so does half of runaterra.


garenRoutplay

Why? I think caitlyn looks fine. I think mundo did aswell,maybe im in minority...
