If you’ve been following theCyberpunk 2077game long enough, you’ll probably know that CD Projekt Redhas been working with the bandRefused to bring an in-game band to life. The band goes by the name of Samurai in the world ofCyberpunk 2077and we’ve seen the logo adorned on clothing such as the protagonist’s jacket collar, and yesterday a brand-new song was released.
You can listen to the latest track below, which is Samurai’s song “The Ballad of Buck Ravers”. However, there are many people being directed to this video through the limited edition controller that people have received recently that includes a QR code on the reverse of the controller, sending them to the video.
The lyrics touch on liberty, revenge, and a lot of violence, which seems rather fitting to the style of the game. It’s also perhaps the heaviest of the tracks released, and personally, I love it.
There have already been two songs previously released, “Never Fade Away” was one, while the other was “Chippin' In”. Refused has been working on the songs, including writing, recording, and producing with creative direction from CD Projekt Red’s composer team which is being led by Marcin Przybyłowicz.
The game should have songs that are heavily inspired by original source material as well as original tracks that have been created exclusively by Refused forCyberpunk 2077.There areother musicians and bands as part of the game’s soundtrack, but Refused seems to be the most prominent one, being fronted in-game byKeanu Reeve’s character, Johnny Silverhand.
