Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes and Spiritbox vocalist Courtney LaPlante have joined forces with electronic artist Grabbitz for a new collaboration, “If The Sun Burns Out Tonight.”
Written and produced by Grabbitz in partnership with Riot Games, the track has been created for the popular first-person shooter ‘Valorant’ and will serve as the official anthem for the upcoming Valorant Champions tournament.
This year’s championship event will take place in Shanghai, China, running from September 24th through October 18th.
Grabbitz said of bringing the three artists together:
“The best collaborations happen when everyone brings a different perspective to the room — and that’s what makes this record so exciting to me. Oli, Courtney and I came together from different corners of the globe, and landed on a track that sits effortlessly between my electronic world and the heavy landscapes of Bring Me The Horizon and Spiritbox.”
He continued:
“The three of us just clicked — and the result is what I believe to be the best Valorant anthem to date.”
For Sykes, who has been open about his passion for gaming, the project represented a natural intersection of his interests in music and interactive entertainment.
“I’ve always been drawn to projects that blur the lines between storytelling and music, so working with Riot Games, alongside Grabbitz and Courtney, and becoming part of the Valorant world felt like a really natural fit.”
The collaboration also marks another venture into the gaming world for LaPlante, who previously worked with Riot Games on its fighting game ‘2XKO.’ She contributed vocals to the 2025 track “Ties That Bind.”
Speaking about the new collaboration, LaPlante said:
“I cannot wait to release this song! Oli has given me the opportunity to perform live with BMTH many times over the years, and we’re finally debuting something we worked on together.”
She added:
“Grabbitz produced such a great atmosphere and a song tailored to all three of our voices, and Oli went in right away and made it a true collaboration.”
