TFT patch notes 2026

You can expect new TFT updates to launch mostly on Wednesdays, typically alongside League of Legends patches. Even though both games share release days, TFT uses its own patch numbering system.

The first number shows the set, and the second shows the update within that set. For example:

Riot plans around eight updates per set, giving you regular balance changes and feature adjustments throughout each cycle.

Patch dates can shift when needed. If a delay happens, you will usually receive notice within 48 hours of the planned release.

TFT Sets 17, 18, and 19 release dates

You can expect three major set launches across 2026, each spaced a few months apart. Riot continues its multi-set yearly structure, giving you time to adapt before the next overhaul.

You move from spring to mid-summer and then into late fall with these updates, alongside regular balance patches between each set.
