Alan Walker delivers the PAIN for Fatal Fury
Monday 10th August 2026
The FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves soundtrack refuses to pull its punches.
Following a run of releases from electronic music’s biggest names, the franchise’s genre-blurring original soundtrack lands its next heavy hitter: ‘Pain’, a brand new single from global superstar Alan Walker.
Built around a soaring vocal hook and an anthemic, high-impact drop, ‘Pain’ trades blows between raw emotion and the dancefloor; a knockout cut that channels the energy, intensity and emotional stakes at the heart of the Fatal Fury universe.
‘Pain’ hits like a perfectly timed combo, a powerful dance record engineered for equal impact in the club and in the chaos of battle. It’s a fitting sonic centrepiece for Season 2 of a soundtrack that has made a habit of pairing the franchise’s genre-defining gameplay with cutting-edge music from the world’s top electronic artists.
With a catalogue surpassing 100 billion audio and video streams and a global following of over 150 million, Alan Walker remains one of electronic music's most commercially successful and internationally recognised artists. With 'Pain', he brings his signature sound and energy to the world of Fatal Fury.
Norwegian Alan first burst onto the scene in late 2015 with his debut hit single “Faded,” which has over 2 billion Spotify streams and 3.7 billion YouTube views.
Since late 2023, Alan Walker has been captivating over 500,000 fans worldwide, performing on the sold-out Walkerworld Tour across North America, Southeast Asia, India, and China.
With each new release, the FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves soundtrack continues to raise the bar, pairing the franchise’s genre-defining gameplay with cutting-edge music from the world’s top electronic artists. Curated by Salvatore Ganacci, who also appears in-game as a playable fighter, the project honours the legacy of FATAL FURY while pushing its score into uncharted territory. Season 2 got underway with Moontalk’s ‘Sonata’, and ‘Pain’ now steps into the ring as the chapter’s latest heavy hitter.
SNK's beloved Fatal Fury series first hit the market in 1991, spearheading the fighting game boom of the 1990s that swept the industry thereafter.
26 years on, a brand-new entry - FATAL FURY: City of the Wolves - is set to arrive on the scene!
