Right now, the popular strategic title only offers six usable item slots. Although there are seven already, one of those slots is only used for wards or sweeping lens.
Riot Games recently added the 7th unusable item slot since many players are complaining that some gamers are not buying wards, which clearly affects their team's vision in the Summoner's Rift.
However, the true 7th item slot can be used for additional build in the game.

According to Game Rant's latest report, Riot Games accidentally released an image showing the new item holder. However, the giant game developer suddenly removed the post, saying that the development team still has no plan to release a new item slot.

But, since there is already evidence, there's a high chance that the giant game creator is working on the 7th item slot. Although this is the case, as a player, you still need to wait for the company's confirmation before making any conclusion.
Based on the leaked image, the empty space can be used to purchase in-game weapons. If the new enhancement is true, it will change how players battle each other in the Summoner's Rift. This would allow them to make critical decisions regarding using defense, damage, and active items.
