SEGA’s SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance, which is releasing soon on August 29th, 2025, had their famous composers announced. Legends in the gaming industry, Taigo “Tee” Lopes and Yuzo Koshiro, will be the ones composing the game’s soundtrack.
Tiago “Tee” Lopes is responsible for tracks in games such as Sonic Mania™, Streets of Rage™4. Yuzo Koshio is responsible for composing music in games such as The Revenge of Shinobi™, Streets of Rage, and Shenmue™. Not only are the games themselves famous, but each game’s music has all been critically acclaimed by fans of the games, and with some tracks becoming so famous that they’re well-known outside of the gaming community.
With both of their fame, fans are ecstatic to hear the soundtrack of SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance in its entirety. SEGA’s official X (Twitter) page posted an announcement featuring Tiago Lopes in which he explains the inspiration and design of the new soundtrack. Taigo Lopes has confirmed that he will be performing a DJ set that will take fans through the history of the game, culminating in the reveal of new tracks.
The exact date of the performance is still unclear, but many fans expect that the performance and a video will be released in the near future. Although Taigo Lopes disappeared in a puff of smoke in the X announcement, the game is currently available for pre-order. Available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Nintendo Switch, all pre-orders will receive a 10% discount, the Original Arcade Outfit, and Fortune Hunter Amulet.
Physical pre-orders for the game are available across the EMEA region for PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Fans that are located in North America can pre-order the physical Classic Edition and Collector’s Edition exclusively through the Limited Run Games website until June 29, 2025.
The game was also previously featured in Summer Games Fest 2025, in which the team at Mxdwn was able to experience the game hands-on for forty minutes, which can be found in our article entitled Summer Games Fest 2025: SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance Preview: A Stunning Return of Sega Classic.
