Riot collaborates with Lil Nas X on upcoming Worlds anthem, K’Sante skin

League of Legends’ Worlds tournament is coming up, which serves as the culmination of the year’s competitive circuit. There will be teams from all over the globe competing in an extended tournament in North America. Games are taking place in Mexico City and New York City as well as Atlanta, Atlanta, San Francisco, and San Francisco. Even if you’re not into the esports side of LeagueRiot Games is known for creating a lot of content at this time of the year in order to promote its flagship franchise. There are often exciting surprises. The collaboration this year includes Lil Nas X’s song “Song of the Year” and a brand new champion skin, both designed by him in his party.

To get everyone excited about Every Worlds Riot, Riot released an anthem. Even if you’ve never watched an esports in your life, it’s hard not to get hype at collaborations like Rise, Legends Never Die, GIANTS, or Burn It All Down. Lil Nas X is behind this year’s Anthem, called “Star Walkin’,” and we get to hear a clip of the catchy tune in the announcement. It is shared as a concise, short video. The Office, and it’s fun to watch.

Worlds brings lots of changes to the game. It can also bring new skins or a new champion. Fans know that the next champion added to the game will be K’Sante, the Pride of Nazumah. We know that this high-skill tank is the next to reach the top lane and we also know that he came from Shurima, a region that was created by monster hunters. K’Sante uses a regenerative piece of monster hide to beat his enemies, and he’s used to facing tough opponents, as Nazumah had to compete with beasts just for access to drinking water

Lil Nas X will be collaborating on Riot for a Prestige skin for K’Sante. We haven’t seen what those threads will look like quite yet, but it looks like Riot will be rolling out more information in the weeks leading up to Worlds.
