Heavy Is The Crown will be the second song to be released by Linkin Park after they made a historic return after seven years with The Emptiness Machine with a new lead singer, Emily Armstrong.

“It’s been an amazing experience partnering with Riot to bring this anthem to the global League of Legends community,” said Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park. “The song is a real highlight of this new era for us, harnessing our signature sound and infusing it with fresh energy. We’re so excited for players and fans to experience this!”

The official music anthem is set to release on September 24 at 8:00 AM PT and you will be able to watch it on League of Legends' YouTube channel:
