TFT Set 5 "Reckoning" is the next chapter in your Teamfight Tactics adventure that will arrive later this month.

Riot Games officially shared the most important upcoming features to the Set 5 of Teamfight Tactics which includes Shadow Items, new Champions, and more.

While the detailed patch notes for TFT Set 5 are yet to be shared, below you can take look at the most notable features of the upcoming Set. (Thanks, Dexerto!)

TFT Set 5 Release Date

The Teamfight Tactics new set, Reckoning, will officially be available on April 28 this year, according to the game's lead designer, Stephen Mortimer. The new set will be available for six months. So, if you have had memorable days with the current Fates set, make sure to enjoy it until the arrival of Reckoning.

TFT Set 5 Shadow Items

Simply put, Shadow Items will allow players to min-max their builds, but they will need to think and use them smartly. Despite having some considerable benefits, Shadow Items will also feature self-harm or downside to make you think before using them.

There are two ways to acquire shadow items: You can get them by chance on the carousel or pick them in the Armory.

Based on your luck, you can find Shadow components or completed Shadow Items on the carousel.

If you're going to ask about Shadow components, let me tell you that they are the essential resources for crafting Shadow Items. If you combine one Shadow component with a Regular/Shadow component, you will have a Shadow Item. It's up to you and your champion to choose which combination would give you the best Shadow Item.

Below, you can take a look at the available Shadow Items in TFT Set 5:
