Jayce is voiced by Trevor Devall in League of Legends and Legends of Runeterra, while Kevin Alejandro voices him in Arcane (with young Jayce voiced by Faustino Duran).

Originally conceived as "Apollo," Jayce was initially designed with three forms instead of two. His weapon concept evolved from early iterations of sword combinations to the iconic transforming Mercury Hammer/Cannon, reflecting his identity as a Piltovan inventor.

Standing at 188 cm (6'2"), Jayce is 24 years old during Arcane's first act and 31-32 during its later acts. He's known for signing his inventions with a "J," which Viktor considers somewhat egotistical.

Notable gameplay features:

• First champion with access to eight abilities
• One of six champions who can be both ranged and melee
• Third champion with a dedicated recall animation on release
• Can access all abilities at Level 1

Cultural references:

• His dance references MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This"
• Title "Defender of Tomorrow" likely references Superman
• Various quotes reference pop culture (Star Trek, James Bond)

Skin themes include:

• Full Metal
• Debonair
• Resistance
• Forsaken
• Battle Academia
• Battlecast
• Arcane
• Zenith Games

Each skin line connects to larger thematics within League of Legends, with some directly tying to the Arcane series or other champion storylines.

House Talis, Jayce's family, operates a factory producing tools that helped build Piltover, demonstrating his deep connection to the city's industrial development.

His Mercury Hammer also serves as a personal memento, crafted with a HexCrystal given to him by a mysterious mage in his youth, symbolizing his dream of bringing hextech technology to the masses.
