The wording suggests that multiple artists will be able to embody Ahri, Evelynn, Akali, and Kai/Sa, much like the British virtual band Gorillaz. That flexibility will allow K/DA to “embrace a more global pop sound,” Riot Games teased, that centers around the fictional champions “instead of the vocals of any one individual talent.” The company hasn’t said whether K/DA will perform on stage again. The band debuted with a live rendition of “POP/STARS” at the 2018 League of Legends World Championship that included both the real-life artists and, using AR, their digital counterparts.

K/DA isn’t the only virtual band that Riot has come up with. In 2014, the company created a fictional metal six-piece called Pentakill with League champions Karthus, Kayle, Mordekaiser, Olaf, Sona and Yorick. Then, last November, the company unveiled another virtual act called True Damage. The hip hop group’s debut single, “Giants,” has over 100 million views on YouTube and was performed using holo-projection at last year’s League of Legends World Championship. True Damage members include K/DA’s Akali — once again performed by Soyeon — Ekko, Senna, Qiyana and Yasuo.
