STEP into a futuristic metropolis where the stakes are high, and only the strongest crews survive in Teamfight Tactics: Cyber City. Launching globally on April 2 on PC and mobile, Cyber City brings players into the heart of a vibrant city filled with competing factions vying for control. Fight for supremacy, expand your turf, and defend your crew in this high-tech, fast-paced set.
During the recent TFT Dev Drop, Riot Games showcased Cyber City’s electrifying gameplay highlights, including powerful new champions, unique traits, a new game mechanic, and eye-popping cosmetics. Cyber City promises a fresh, high-energy experience for both veterans and newcomers alike.
Champions
Cyber City introduces a lineup of powerful champions ready to battle it out for dominance on the streets and high up in the skyscrapers. After a long awaited return, Shaco makes an appearance in Cyber City as a 1-cost, while steady favorites Brand and Aphelios make their comeback as 4-cost heavy-hitters. In the 5-cost category, we’ll see the TFT debut of Aurora and Kobuko in new battle boss attire. Samira, Viego, Renekton, Garen, Zac, and Urgot are also part of the legendary lineup!
Traits & Origins
Cyber City brings innovative new traits and origins that challenge players to think outside the box:
Street Demon: Activate Street Demon hexes to power up your champions. Street Demon units placed in these marked hexes gain double the stats, with signature hexes granting even more power.
Anima Squad: Choose from an arsenal of weapons inspired by League of Legends game mode, Swarm. These weapons automatically fire during combat, turning the tide of battle when you need it most. Squaddies Include Vayne, Yuumi, Leona, and Aurora.
Golden Ox: Golden Ox champions increase damage and drop gold during combat. Spend big in a turn to increase bonuses permanently, but be prepared to save up for the next round of reinvestment.
Cypher: Cypher champions gather Intel by losing combat or killing enemies, and you can trade your Intel for loot during specific rounds. The more Cypher champions you recruit, the more Intel you’ll have at your disposal.
Syndicate: Upgrade a Syndicate champion with a Kingpin hat to enhance their abilities. At 5 Syndicate, choose another Kingpin and enhance their power even further. At 7 Syndicate, your Kingpins get even stronger and gain additional benefits!
Cyberbosses (Yordles): Cyber City introduces the Cyberbosses, a new Yordle faction that grows in size and power as they level up. These Yordles pack a punch with abilities that scale to their larger-than-life form.
Set Mechanic: Hacks
In Cyber City, hackers have infiltrated core TFT systems like Opening Encounters, Shops, Orbs, Carousels, and Augments, bringing unexpected changes to your gameplay. But don’t worry—these hackers are on your side, introducing “happy little hackciddents” that keep things fun and unpredictable. Examples include Augment Hacks that offer tough choices, like selecting one strong Augment or two weaker ones, and special changes to Augment slots, such as Black Market Augments from past sets. Shops can also be hacked, with lucky (tailored) shops appearing or 2-star champions popping up.
Additionally, Glitched Carousels make a return, bringing wild surprises like extra items, Anvils, or even the rare Sentinel Golems with random emblems. These hacks will be spread evenly across all players in each lobby, ensuring that everyone experiences the same level of fun chaos. With these delightfully disruptive hacks, Cyber City is set to offer a new and exciting layer of unpredictability to TFT.
