It has been announced that THE ORAL CIGARETTES’s song Dream In Drive, which is taken from their new album SUCK MY WORLD which hit shelves on April 29, 2020, will be used as the theme song for the upcoming action RPG SCARLET NEXUS.
SCARLET NEXUS is an upcoming action RPG for Xbox One and Xbox Series X. A release date has yet to be announced.

Dream In Drive is a fast-paced rock tune taken from THE ORAL CIGARETTES’s latest album SUCK MY WORLD which peaked at No. 1 on Oricon’s album charts. It is their second record to do so following their last, Kisses and Kills. The band is sure to garner many more followers thanks to their tie-up with SCARLET NEXUS.

“I am really happy we have been put in charge of the theme song for SCARLET NEXUS. A synergy is created between the game and protagonist and our sound. It cuts through the story with a red line. We hope you enjoy hearing it.”
