    In order to verify if email and phone number you used to create Japanese Apple ID belong to you, Apple will send two verification codes to you, one is sent to you via email, another via SMS message.

  5. Tap Review, turn on the toggle next to Agree to Terms and Conditions, then click Next.
  6. You need to update the billing info to complete your Japanese Apple ID. DO NOT select any payment method. For the BILLING NAME, use your English name. For the BILLING ADDRESS, you can copy the following billing address:

How to download Wild Rift for Android

If you’re an Android user, follow the instructions below to download and install the latest Wild Rift app on your Android device.

If your Google play account is in the OBT region

  1. Launch Google Play.
  2. Search for Wild Rift.
  3. Tap Install to download & install the game.

If the OBT is not in your region

If the country / region of your current Google Play account is not in the OBT region, it’s better to create a new Google account first. Once you’ve got a new Google account, the easiest way to download and install Wild Rift is to use a VPN on your Android Device. With a VPN conection, you’re wearing a disguise when visiting those region-blocked services, like Wild Rift, and Google Play Store would would grant you access.

We don’t recommend using those “free” VPNs, as free things always come with a price. If you don’t know which VPN to use, here we recommend ExpressVPN and NordVPN.

Follow the steps below to download and install Wild Rift on your Android device:

  1. Sign in to Google Play Store with the new Google account you just created.
  2. Download and install a VPN app (e.g. Express VPN or NordVPN) on your Android device.
  3. Launch the VPN app and connect your android device to a VPN server in the OBT region (e.g. Japan, Singapore, South Korea, etc.).
  4. Close Google Play Store app if it is running.
  5. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications to locate Goolgle Play Store app. Tap on it to view its app info. Then tap Storage & cache > Clear storage > OK to delete app data.
  6. Relaunch Google Play Store and search for Wild Rift. Then tap Install to download & install the game. Normally, Google Play store would grant you access.

How to sign up for a Riot account

Although Wild Rift supports log in with Apple ID and Google Play account, many players recommends using a Riot account to sign in. If you don’t have one, just sign up for a Riot account at League of Legends’ official site.

After you got a Riot account, launch the game and use your Riot account to sign in.

If you’re not in the OBT regions, remember to set up a VPN connection before you sign in.

FAQ

Receive the “unable to login with an account from this region” error message when you try to log in:

In most cases, if the game detected that the IP address of your device is not from the OBT regions, Riot game servers would not grant you access.

To resolve such login errors, the easiest solution is to download and install a VPN app (e.g. Express VPN or NordVPN) on your device. You just need to launch the VPN app and select a VPN server in the OBT regions to connect to. With just one tap, you can connect your device to the VPN server in the OBT region. Once you’ve set up a VPN connection, you can log in to play the game.

Receive the “Connection timed out; attempting to reconnect” error message when you try to log in:

If you’re in the OBT region, this login error may occur when your network condition is unstable. You can try connecting your device to a better Wi-Fi network and try to log in again.

If you’re not in the OBT region, and your device didn’t connect to the VPN server in the OBT region, you may run into this login issue.

It’s easy to fix this issue. All you need to do is download and install a VPN app on your device. Once you’ve set up a VPN connection to the OBT region on your device, you can sign in and play the game.

Note: We don’t recommend using any “free” VPN apps, because such “free” VPN services are not safe. To protect your privacy, we recommend using a paid VPN services such as Express VPN and NordVPN.
