The virtual group K/DA has released the EP K/DA FIRESTARTER, based on League of Legends champions from Riot Games. The project marks the return after the 2020 ALL OUT album and brings the title track K/DA FIRESTARTER plus WATCH ME, NEVER GOING BACK and GIRLS (with DJ Sona).
What happened?
The K/DA FIRESTARTER EP launched on October 21, 2026 across major streaming platforms. Vocals come from MIYEON and SOYEON (of i-dle) as Ahri and Akali, Sophie Powers as Evelynn and Mimi Webb as Kai’Sa. The title track music video for K/DA FIRESTARTER was animated by Fortiche, the studio behind Arcane.
K/DA will perform alongside True Damage at the Worlds 2026 Opening Ceremony on November 14 at Barclays Center in New York. The return includes themed skins and physical products.
Why it matters
The K/DA group has already accumulated billions of streams and strongly influenced the intersection of games and K-pop. The K/DA FIRESTARTER release strengthens Riot's music calendar ahead of the League of Legends World Championship and generates high engagement among esports and geek culture fans.
