Like not a full overhaul but maybe some touch ups and new animations at least? Tons of people get them out of chest so it's not like they would be updated for no reason. I want to see some new effects on red baron corki honestly.

They're not updating visuals for individual skins. Skin updates will only occur with VGUs.

Galio is so far going to be the first champion who has a remotely advanced legendary skin who's getting updated. All the old ones like for Annie, Trist, TF, etc weren't true legendary skins because they were ancient, ancient relics from a time when a new particles effect was considered 1820 work. Galio actually has a different model, a different VO, and different particles in Gatekeeper, and it's not so outdated that it's not retired, making it the first mildly advanced skin to get updated in a VGU.

At present, Rioters have said that they are actually investing a lot of effort into Gatekeeper to make it worthy of it's price tag, and giving it a unique new VO as well as other things. We'll see how involved they are with Gatekeeper, and use this as a gauge for how they'll approach future VGU champs with high cost skins.
