After an unexpected delay, Riot Games has now confirmed that Dumpling Darling Seraphine is set for release on March 5. The skin was postponed due to copyright concerns, but after adjustments to the recall animation, it is now back on track.
Why Was Dumpling Darling Seraphine Delayed?
Originally, Dumpling Darling Seraphine was scheduled for release earlier, but the recall animation featured moves that closely resembled the “Malatanghulu Dance.” This similarity raised potential copyright concerns, prompting Riot to rework part of the animation before launching the skin.
To avoid legal complications, a significant portion of the recall animation was altered. While the overall theme remains intact, players will notice distinct changes in how Seraphine moves during the recall sequence.
