Riot confirms new Pentakill album is in the works with "up to 10 or so" original songs

If you’ve been a fan of League of Legends‘ heavy metal virtual band, Pentakill, then it’s time to rejoice. Riot Games has confirmed that a new album has been planned with up to 10 original songs.

Riot’s creative director Christian “Praeco” Linke spoke a bit about the band and its return on the League subreddit yesterday, saying that the music team needs to find “what’s next for [them] to explore” with strong melodies as the focus as always. But he also couldn’t provide a definite timeline as to when the new music would come out.

“There will definitely be another Pentakill album that features original music. At least a handful, up to 10 or so,” Praeco said. “We’re definitely all eager to get back into it, but would think that it would take another few months to start at least.”

Praeco also talked about how the project must show off all of the passion put into the music since “metalheads are a certain breed.” Some of Riot’s best songs were created for the Pentakill music group as it branched into multiple metal subgenres throughout its tracklist.
