Building on their December announcement, K-pop group EXO has unveiled dramatic teaser photos for their eighth full album 'REVERXE,' set for January 19, 2026. The images feature a dark, superpower-themed concept revisiting the group's debut roots.
EXO's teaser photos for 'REVERXE' depict members in shadowy, cinematic landscapes, emphasizing charisma and power. The visuals nod to their original superpower identities, such as Kai's teleportation and Sehun's wind manipulation, exciting longtime fans.
The album comprises nine tracks, led by title song 'Crown,' which explores themes of devotion and protection. Recent promotions include the pre-release of 'I'm Home' music video at a fan meeting with its live debut, and a performance of 'Back It Up' at the 2025 Melon Music Awards.
This marks EXO's first studio album since 'Exist' (2023). The comeback features six members—Suho, Chanyeol, D.O., Kai, Sehun, and Lay—amid ongoing contractual disputes with Xiumin, Baekhyun, and Chen post their SM Entertainment departure. Lay missed the recent fan meeting due to China-Japan diplomatic tensions, which may impact his promotions.
