Vendetta is the fourth set for the League of Legends card game, Riftbound. Set 4 is set to release in Q3 2026 worldwide, with the Showdown Deck launching in July. With this set, Riot aims to unify the global release date for Riftbound sets so they can be enjoyed by everybody at the same time.
The set reduces the total number of Legends from 12 (as seen in Origins and Spiritforged) down to 9, making this the first Riftbound set with fewer champion Legends. The card count also shrinks to 166 total cards. Despite the smaller size, Vendetta will include over 50 Showcase cards featuring alternate art and Overnumbered variants.
Overnumbered Champions
Vendetta's Overnumbered series features connecting artwork across multiple cards. 21 card backs have been teased, with the following 10 champions hinted at receiving the Overnumbered treatment:
- Swain, Irelia, Ambessa, Mel, Kennen, Jayce, Akali, Nasus, Vi, and Jinx.
Crystal Rose Alt Art x Wild Rift Collab
Confirmed in the latest Wild Rift dev drop, Vendetta will feature a Crystal Rose Alt Art collaboration between Riftbound and Wild Rift. Six Crystal Rose alt art cards will be pullable from all Vendetta booster packs, similar to other alt art cards in the set.
