Riot Games Music and the official League of Legends account announced HEARTSTEEL’s return with new artwork featuring all six members of the virtual group.
“Live My Life” will arrive across streaming platforms on September 18 at 9:00 AM PT. It will be HEARTSTEEL’s second official single following the release of “PARANOIA” in October 2023.

HEARTSTEEL Gets a New Artist Lineup
BAEKHYUN of EXO is returning as Ezreal, the role he previously performed for “PARANOIA.” This time, he will be joined by Anderson .Paak as K’Sante, Connor Price as Sett, and Nic D as Kayn. Yone remains HEARTSTEEL’s producer, while Aphelios serves as the group’s instrumentalist and songwriter.
Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, and producer Jon Bellion is also involved in producing the new track.
HEARTSTEEL Returns Nearly Three Years After “PARANOIA”
HEARTSTEEL debuted in 2023 with “PARANOIA,” which introduced Riot’s first League of Legends virtual boy band and later received a major live performance during the 2023 World Championship.
After nearly three years without another release, “Live My Life” finally begins HEARTSTEEL’s next chapter. Riot has already opened pre-saves for the September 18 launch, giving League fans only a few more days to wait for the group’s comeback.
