Your pseudonyms have just been transferred to "Riot ID" You don't know how to change it? Don't panic, We'll explain!
Riot Games, in the interests of evolution and standardization of its services, has decided to end the use of the term "summoner" in League of Legends.
To do this, the procedure for changing your Riot ID has been permanently changed. We'll explain how to change your Riot ID.
How to change your Riot ID?
Whether you play League of Legends, Valorant, Legends of Runeterra (LoR), or Teamfight Tactics (TFT), the process for changing your Riot ID remains unchanged. Follow these simple steps:
- Go to your Riot account page.
- Customize your Riot ID and callsign to your preferences.
- Tap “Save Changes.”
If you are a League of Legends or TFT player on PC, you also have the option to change your Riot ID directly in the client:
- Go to the store.
- Click on the “Account” tab.
- Choose the option to change Riot ID.
- Follow the pop-up link to account.riotgames.com.
- Enter your new Riot ID.
Starting November 20, 2023, all players will be able to change their Riot ID for free, regardless of when they last changed it. However, a waiting period of 90 days from the last free change will now be required before making a new change.
An exception to this rule is if you recently changed your Riot ID within the last 90 days and are experiencing harassment or other negative impacts. In this case, simply submit a ticket to support, and the Riot team will assist you in resolving the issue.
No paid changes to Riot ID
It is important to note that it is no longer possible to alter your Riot ID for a fee. The only method available is the aforementioned free modification.
What is a Riot ID?
Riot ID is your universal identifier used across all Riot games, unifying your presence across the publisher's games ecosystem. Each Riot ID is tied to a single email address. By changing this ID, you adjust your appearance in each associated game. If you have multiple accounts and want to change your Riot ID, make sure you are on the correct account before proceeding.
There are specific rules governing the composition of your Riot ID, which is divided into two parts: the nickname and the callsign.
Pseudonyms must be between 3 and 16 alphanumeric characters and cannot be offensive or inappropriate. They don't need to be unique, as long as the entire Riot ID isn't already taken.
The codes, for their part, must contain between 3 and 5 alphanumeric characters. Although they start with a default region code, once changed you cannot reuse a region code. Some region codes will no longer be available when changing your Riot ID. Choosing callsigns that are neither insulting nor inappropriate is crucial to maintaining a healthy gaming environment.
In summary, the ability to change your Riot ID for free is now available to all players, with a 90-day waiting period between each free change.
