Riot Games revealed the planned contents for Act 2 of Season 3 of League of Legends, which will include greater musical presence in the game, changes to voice chat, and the addition of five Demacian champions to League Classic mode. A second phase of the 5v5 Ranked Queue, the competitive queue for groups of five players, is also planned.

In the first phase, with version 26.18, Poppy, Xin Zhao, Shyvana, Galio, and Fiora will arrive, all champions from the kingdom of Demacia. These characters will be integrated into League Classic mode, which allows playing classic versions of champions.

In a second phase, Graves will be added to League Classic, accompanied by three more Bilgewater champions. This expansion of classic champions is part of Riot's strategy to diversify the content available in this game mode.

League Classic is a mode that allows players to experience previous versions of champions, offering a nostalgic approach to the game. With these additions, the mode will receive a significant number of new characters for players to explore.

However, the study reveals marked disparities: young people between 16 and 24 years old show greater digital proficiency, while elderly people have considerably lower digital literacy rates.
