Our take on Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story™
Its defining structure ties every major movement and explosive action to the music, turning a runner into a sequence of timed bombs, bounces, dodges, enemy encounters, and fuse-lighting tasks.
What is Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story™?
Players control Ziggs, a Hexplosives expert, in a rhythm runner set across Piltover’s neighborhoods.
Movement and actions follow the music as Ziggs bombs, bounces, avoids obstacles, disarms enemies, and lights fuses while pursuing the construction of a major bomb.
