The LoL Worlds 2023 Anthem is always a big talking point before the tournament kicks off. Some people hate it, some people love it. This year, K-Pop sensation "NewJeans" will have the honor of performing the theme for the League of Legends World Championship!
If you are a big fan of League of Legends esports, the Worlds Anthem is most likely something you care about – especially since the leading theme will ring in your ears for several weeks while watching the action live on stream or even in attendance.
This year, we're heading to South Korea, so it's only right that a K-Pop band will take the stage! In 2023, "NewJeans" will be performing the Anthem for the biggest esports event in the world, and we're here for it!
