Riot Games has announced it will reverse changes to Karma’s facial features and skin tone in her promotional material for League of Legends: Wild Rift. Known as the living embodiment of an ancient soul reincarnated countless times, Karma was introduced in League of Legends in 2011. However, she’s only just making her way over to the MOBA’s mobile counterpart at the end of March. After the release of some promotional assets for her Wild Rift debut, fans noticed her appearance had been changed. Her face was transformed to look generally more eurocentric, with specific features such as her nose, mouth, and jaw looking smaller and more rounded. Though Karma’s violet eyes only turn green when she uses her ultimate, they were changed to be normally green. Most immediately glaringly, though, is that her brown skin tone was drastically lightened. It’s unsure how the change happened in the first place, but Riot is 메이저사이트 working to restore Karma’s original model. “Hey gang, we’re going to be updating Karma’s face/skintone in some of our promotional assets,” Ben Forbes, the communications lead for Wild Rift, tweeted on March 22. “We did this on a pretty short turnaround, so please forgive us if she’s not updated everywhere in time.” He goes on to thank Twitter user @_spacecate for bringing up the issue, as well as to reassure fans that the art and production team are taking “the concern seriously and making changes.”
