HEALTH’s new track, “Arena War” may be a good listen while driving in traffic. It is the new score for Grand Theft Auto: Arena War which is flooded with electronic beats, filled with an adrenaline soaked ensemble.
Grand Theft Auto Online: Arena War official soundtrack comes rocking with nine new tracks. HEALTH are the same artists behind the score for Max Payne 3 and “High Pressure Dave,” which can be heard on Radio Mirror Park in Grand Theft Auto 5. The collection of nine instrumental tracks is essentially a continuation of the newly released, noise rock album, VOL. 4 :: SLAVES OF FEAR.
In the game of Grand Theft Auto, the player takes on the role of a criminal in the big city, typically an individual who plans to rise through the ranks of organised crime through the course of the game. The player is given various missions by kingpins and major idols in the city underworld which must be completed to progress through the storyline. Assassinations and other violent crimes are featured regularly. Occasionally taxi driving, firefighting, street racing, bus driving, or learning to fly helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft are also involved in the game.
In certain series, the player is given a more developed storyline in which they are forced to overcome an unfortunate event (e.g., being betrayed and left for dead), which serves as motivation for the character to advance up the criminal ladder and ultimately leads to the triumph of the character by the end of the storyline.
The soundtrack release comes hot on the trail of seven new RC Bandito tracks, the Arena War Creator and more. While playing GTA, you can run your own workshop, make your own destructive vehicles, use bikes, cars, and trucks to crash into each other and make a massive mess, and otherwise wreak havoc.
