Empyrean Akali dresses Akali in a glossy, skintight bodysuit that shifts between purple, pink and neon green, trading the layered ninja cloth and exposed face of the base champion for a sculpted, faceless mask and serrated kama blades.
In-game, her abilities glow with neon green, purple, and pink ethereal energy. Q (Five Point Strike) throws bright yellow kunai blades with crystalline trails. Her Passive (Assassin's Mark) glows with green-pink neon lights. W (Twilight Shroud) becomes a dark glossy shroud with small star-like sparkles. E (Shuriken Flip) leaves neon dash trails behind the shuriken, and R (Perfect Execution) teleports with ribbon-like neon arcs and glossy shards, dropping a small portal-like effect at the starting position. The SFX were updated to match the bright, metallic neon theme, making hits feel crisp and futuristic.
The skin includes a custom recall where Akali performs stunts straight from a platformer game. All other animations remain unchanged from the base.
Voice lines are the same as base Akali, but a new filtered effect gives them an airy, otherworldly tone. Visually and audibly, the skin emphasizes an Empyrean, gem-like guardian motif rather than a traditional ninja aesthetic.
This skin is part of the Empyrean line, which leans on jewel tones, polished black materials, and faceless, celestial designs. Chromas available for this skin are:
Release date: January 5, 2024.
V8.15: Full relaunch — new model, new splash art, updated lore, new VFX/SFX, and a refreshed voice filter and textures.
V4.17: Texture update.
V4.16: New splash art.
Empyrean is a Neon Strata-themed set where the Foreglow's volatile neon flames turn survivors into otherworldly forces called Empyreans. Champions in this line show neon, cosmic-fire visuals and a sense of doomed power — strong but fleeting.
This universe includes Empyrean skins and occasional Prestige Empyrean variants that use Mythic/Prestige currency and special rewards.
Lore: after dimensional collapse the Foreglow birthed Empyreans like Pyke, and survivors across realms gained blazing powers. Empyrean Akali wakes from imprisonment and uses her new power to defend realms she once failed. Trivia: several Empyrean skins have level 2 upgrades and multiple chromas; Empyrean Akali's chromas include Amethyst, Catseye, Emerald, Neon Facade, Pearl, Rose Quartz, Ruby, Sapphire, and Turquoise.

Yes. Because Empyrean Akali is not mythic or legacy, it can appear as a Hextech shard and be gifted through Mystery Gift. If you prefer to skip RNG, browse verified accounts here: Buy LoL Accounts.
That depends on your taste. Empyrean Akali delivers neon Foreglow visuals that stand out among her extensive skin collection. The visual effects are polished, and the model brings a fresh gem-like guardian aesthetic to the table. I'd rate this skin a solid 8/10—it's a quality Epic-tier skin, though it doesn't offer the extra animations or features that would push it into legendary territory.
