Heavy Is The Crown

“Heavy Is The Crown” is the anticipated second single from Linkin Park’s eighth studio album, From Zero. The song is also the official League of Legends Worlds 2024 anthem, with its release date being the day before Worlds 2024 begins. Rumors of the song being linked to League of Legends started in early September 2024 after the official LoL account replied to a Linkin Park tweet with a crown emoji. Fans quickly interpreted it as a reference to the song title, and Mike Shinoda also hinted at the connection by replying with a fire emoji to a tweet from Arcane. On September 21, 2024, Linkin Park further implied the collaboration when the words “Make them believe” — the slogan for Worlds 2024 — were added at the bottom of their website upon loading. “Heavy Is The Crown” would finally make a surprise debut the next day when the band played it live in Hamburg, Germany as a part of the show’s encore on the From Zero Would Tour. Official confirmation of the League of Legends collab would follow soon after:
