London, 18th March 2021 – You’ll want to recruit this one into your collection… The factions of Ubisoft and Laced Records have teamed up to bring the music of high-tech action game Watch Dogs: Legion to good ol’ fashioned vinyl. This triple LP set features original score tracks by Stephen Barton and tracks “Rainfall (feat. Tiana Major9)” by Brit Award-winning Stormzy and “In the Jungle” by Baby Knoxx.
25 tracks specially mastered for vinyl will be pressed onto three audiophile-quality, heavyweight 180g discs. The Limited Edition (exclusive to Laced Records’ store) features red, white and black LPs (traditional black for the Standard Edition.) Five sides include music, with the sixth side featuring a custom etching of the iconic DedSec pig mask. LPs will be housed in a deluxe triple gatefold.
Watch Dogs: Legion builds on the open-world stealth-action gameplay of its predecessors, delivering a never-before-seen gameplay innovation. Players can recruit and play as anyone they see in the iconic city of London: an MI6 agent, a tough bare-knuckle fighter, or an inconspicuous old lady.
Composer Stephen Barton has amassed an enviable AAA credits list, including co-composition on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (with Harry Gregson-Williams), the Titanfall series, Apex Legends, and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. For Watch Dogs: Legion’s pulse-pounding original score, Barton blends a dizzying array of electronic and percussive elements, with flashes of breakbeat and layers of atmospheric ambience.
Stormzy went from freestyling in the London underground scene to headlining Glastonbury in less than five years, and is used to speaking up for social and political change. The grime megastar appears as an NPC in Watch Dogs: Legion and produced an in-world music video for the powerful track “Rainfall (feat. Tiana Major9)”, which features on the game’s soundtrack.
Also included on the vinyl is UK rapper Baby Knoxx’s “In the Jungle”, which featured in the ‘Reclaim Your Future’ game trailer.
The Watch Dogs: Legion triple vinyl can be pre-ordered now via www.lacedrecords.com (www.lacedrecords.co outside of the USA) and will ship in August 2021.
Price: GBP £45 / USD $50
