Swarm is a new game mode within the League of Legends universe, set during the Anima Squad Event. LoL players will have to team up to defend humanity and Final City from waves of alien Primordians.

Swarm allows teams ranging from 1 to 4 players and features unique combat, four different maps, and epic boss fights that progress the story and unlock new playable champions, known as Fighters.

What's unique about this game mode is that the champions will be controlled with the WASD keys, and players can choose between automatic and manual aiming. The well-known Fog of War from regular League of Legends matches won't be present.
