"Sacrifice" is a song by Hong Kong singer-songwriter G.E.M. It was released on October 13, 2025 as the official theme song of the 2025 League of Legends World Championship. The song was written by Alex Seaver and Sebastien Najand, and produced by Seaver, Jayson De Zuzio, and Madalin Rosioru. A music video was released on the same date as the song's release.
The 2025 World Championship was held in China - in the cities of Beijing, Shanghai, and Chengdu. The host selection was announced alongside an announcement of an extended sponsorship agreement between Chinese smartphone manufacturer OPPO and Riot Games on 24 October 2024.[1]
On 19 September 2025, Riot Games announced that G.E.M. would be the main artist for the official theme song of the 2025 World Championship.[2] In an interview with Sheep Esports, Riot Games' Global Head of Music Maria Egan said of G.E.M.'s selection, "she’s a superstar, and we had to find the biggest possible stage."[3]
Recording for the song was conducted in Shanghai by G.E.M. alongside writers and producers Alex Seaver of Mako, Riot Games Principal Composer Sebastien Najand, and Jayson De Zuzio. On X (formerly Twitter), Seaver said, "We came together this year & aspired to make a ballad worthy of celebrating an emotional 15 years of Worlds and the things we give up to make it there. I realized I’d been around for so much of this history as well, wanted to give it my best."[4]
