K/DA is Coming.
At approximately 11:31 PM PDT on October 13 (06:31 UTC on October 14), the official @KDA_MUSIC account posted for the first time in nearly six years. The post simply reads:
“Do we have your attention?”
Attached is a striking new visual: layered close-ups of the four members’ eyes rendered in vivid pinks, purples, and glowing metallics, framed by torn paper edges. Across the center sits the text
OCTOBER 20
START A FIRE
The account’s profile picture has also been updated to a new group shot of Ahri, Akali, Evelynn, and Kai’Sa bathed in hot pink energy and smoke, matching the earlier banner refresh that added magenta flame effects to the classic ALL OUT artwork.
This is the first direct communication from the official K/DA account since the December 2020 thank-you post that closed out the ALL OUT era.
For months, the community has tracked a growing pile of signals: a registered track titled “Watch Me,” merch concepts carrying “Start a Fire” branding, Wild Rift data pointing to a “Firestarter” skin line, a Wikipedia edit request hyping up K/DA, and the recent reactivation and visual refresh of K/DA’s social accounts. Today’s post converts those signals into an official date and title.
Rejoice. We are finally getting a comeback.
While we don’t know yet if K/DA will be returning with a single, EP, or—pray—a full project, what videos, skins, or performances may accompany new music, or even the returning lineup, Blades should make sure they’re ready for what comes next.
One clue we have is that alongside multiple animators posting about it, Fortiche replied to the post on X, strongly indicating that we will be getting a Fortiche Prouctions-animated Music Video.
October 20 falls just days before the start of the League of Legends World Championship group stage window and roughly three weeks before the Grand Final in Brooklyn. K/DA has historically aligned major releases with WORLDS.
The girls asked if they had our attention. They do.
