To celebrate Sonic’s 24th anniversary, SEGA was internally working on their own take on the endless runner genre with their new mobile game, Sonic Runners. While the game was released early in smaller markets for testing, it finally dropped internationally on iOS and Android devices towards the end of June, and with it came the release of the first volume of the game’s soundtrack.
And now, just in time for Christmas, the EP-length Sonic Runners: Original Soundtrack Vol. 2 has finally arrived on digital streaming services!
The second volume, like the first, is solely composed by Tomoya Ohtani himself, and is mainly comprised of some of the music featured in recent in-game events – unsurprisingly, the music is gorgeous and an absolute blast to listen to, making the second volume a must-have for any Sonic OST fan’s library.
The track listing is as follows:
- “Going My Way” (1:01)
- “Go Quickly!” (3:09)
- “Fiery Passion” (3:34)
- “End of the Summer” (3:48)
- “Strange Parade” (3:42)
- “Magical Snow Day” (4:11)
- “Ambition” (3:54)
The second volume is available now on iTunes (UK / US) and Amazon (UK / US), with individual tracks costing £0.79 / $0.99 a pop. If you choose to get the entire 7-track album right away, the price sits at an affordable £5.53 / $6.93 – with Vol. 2 sounding as beautiful as it does, it’s an absolute steal!
Planning on downloading this gem for yourself? If you’ve already bought the album, which track is your favourite of the bunch? Sound off below!
Radical! In spite of everything, Runners has an outstanding soundtrack. Gonna grab this one too!
oh yeah i forgot they make those.
In OTHER news, meaning much BETTER news…
Freedom Planet 2! Huzzah!
That Trailer…..so good! Shame it’s gonna be a while until its release ):
Huzzah indeed!This be a joyous announcement
However, I think FP has ascended beyond their basic DNA to become their own series…hence it’s no longer Sonic news. It’s Freedom Planet news!
I actually prefered the volume 1….
The soundtrack is honestly the best thing about Runners, but I find myself saying that a lot about modern Sonic titles…
Fucking, I just spent money on Christmas stuff. FINE.
Just…download…?
Just…rip from YT?
Better Sonic Ruuners soundtrack volume 2 than Sonic Boom Rise Of Lyric soundtrack because I remember Sonic Boom Lyric Of Lyric dosen’t have enough soundtrack they only have at the beginning song & ending song it means Sega have two soundtrack in the Wii U version.
Is English your first language?
