True Damage is returning to League of Legends with a new set of Know My Name skins. Riot has confirmed that the new True Damage cosmetics are tied to Patch 26.21, bringing the original five-member lineup back into the spotlight as the group returns around Worlds 2026. The early 26.21 cycle currently includes skins for Akali, Ekko, Qiyana, Senna and Yasuo, with Ekko receiving the Prestige edition.
Which champions are getting new True Damage skins?
The current lineup is:
True Damage Know My Name Akali
Prestige True Damage Know My Name Ekko
True Damage Know My Name Qiyana
True Damage Know My Name Senna
True Damage Know My Name Yasuo
The lineup matches the five champions who formed True Damage when the virtual group originally debuted. This time, Ekko is the champion receiving the Prestige version.
When will the new True Damage skins release?
Riot has confirmed that the new cosmetics are associated with Patch 26.21. The skins are currently part of the early 26.21 cycle, so they should not be described as live in the game yet. The current project snapshot explicitly marks 26.21 as an early PBE cycle and notes that PBE content can still change before release. That distinction is especially important for any detailed cosmetic information that has not yet appeared in final live patch notes.
Akali is once again part of the lineup. The assassin has long connected Riot's virtual music projects through both K/DA and True Damage, making her return one of the most recognizable parts of the new skin set. Know My Name gives Riot another opportunity to revisit that identity without changing the core True Damage roster.
Ekko gets the Prestige skin
Ekko receives the Prestige edition in the new collection. The standard current 26.21 lineup lists Prestige True Damage Know My Name Ekko alongside the four other skins. That makes him the main Prestige focus of the return. Riot has not attached confirmed live gameplay balance changes to the current 26.21 PBE build, so the early cycle is currently much more about cosmetics than Summoner's Rift tuning.
Qiyana, Senna and Yasuo complete the lineup
Qiyana, Senna and Yasuo all return alongside Akali and Ekko. The decision preserves the original True Damage group rather than replacing members or expanding the band with another champion. For longtime fans, that creates a direct continuation of one of League's most recognizable music skin lines. It also connects naturally with the return of True Damage around the 2026 World Championship.
Know My Name ties the skins to Worlds 2026
The cosmetic reveal arrives alongside True Damage's new Worlds era. Riot's current announcements page promotes the Know My Name gameplay trailer while confirming that the new skins are headed to Patch 26.21. The broader True Damage return is also connected to the Worlds 2026 anthem campaign, putting the group back in front of both League players and esports viewers. That gives the new skin line a much wider launch context than an ordinary cosmetic release.
What is still unconfirmed?
Because Patch 26.21 is still in its early cycle, players should separate confirmed cosmetic information from anything tentative.
Confirmed:
the Know My Name skin line
Akali, Ekko, Qiyana, Senna and Yasuo
Prestige Ekko
Patch 26.21 as the target patch
Not yet safe to treat as final:
unannounced gameplay balance changes
any PBE-specific details that Riot changes before live
information that does not appear in official announcements or final patch notes
As of the current 26.21 snapshot, there are no confirmed Summoner's Rift gameplay balance changes recorded for the patch.
What to watch next
The next major step is the full Patch 26.21 rollout. That should provide the final release context for the True Damage Know My Name collection and confirm any additional content arriving alongside it.
