Hearts2Hearts releases “Next Chapter” in collaboration with Arena of Valor

SM Entertainment group Hearts2Hearts has released “Next Chapter”, an upbeat synth-pop dance track produced in collaboration with the multiplayer online battle arena game Arena of Valor. The single marks the group’s first English-language release and celebrates the 10th anniversary of the game, which is developed by Tencent Games and Garena.

The accompanying music video features a gaming-inspired aesthetic, utilizing a vibrant color palette of pink, yellow, blue, and purple alongside holographic projections and laser effects to mirror the game’s digital environment. The collaboration is expected to extend into the game itself through exclusive in-game content.

Hearts2Hearts is scheduled to perform the song live for the first time on 23 October at the Arena of the Decade: RoV Pro League 2026 Winter esports event in Bangkok, Thailand.
