Atomic Heart Soundtrack Vinyl: Release Date, Tracklist & Pre-Order Details

March 9, 2026 Laura Fontaine - Entertainment Editor Entertainment

The haunting soundscape of Atomic Heart is finally making its way off the screen and onto vinyl. Following the release of the game’s fourth and final DLC, “Blood on Crystal,” developers Mundfish have partnered with Kid Katana Records to deliver a special 2LP release featuring the game’s complete musical compilation.

For those unfamiliar, Atomic Heart is a visually striking, first-person shooter set in an alternate 1955 Soviet Union. The game, lauded for its unique aesthetic and challenging gameplay, throws players into a world overrun by rebellious machines. As the official game description states, players must “adapt your fighting style to each opponent, use your environment and upgrade your equipment to fulfill your mission. If you want to reach the truth, you’ll have to pay in blood.” The game launched in February 2023 and has continued to expand its universe through a series of DLCs, culminating in this month’s final chapter.

A Soundtrack Steeped in Retro Futurism

The vinyl release isn’t just a simple collection of tracks; it’s a curated experience. According to a post on Steam, the tracklist was handpicked by the Atomic Heart team themselves, featuring a diverse range of artists including Mick Gordon, known for his work on the Doom soundtrack, Geoffrey Day, and Boogrov. Notably, the release includes a brand-recent track exclusive to the “Blood on Crystal” DLC trailer. The 23-track compilation promises a deep dive into the game’s sonic world, blending retro-futuristic soundscapes with a distinctly Russian flavor.

The physical edition, available for pre-order now at €42 through Kid Katana’s online store, is designed as a premium collector’s item. It features a double LP pressed on unique “Corona Black & Red” colored vinyl – a handmade effect that mimics the swirling red and black aesthetic of the game’s cover art. The cover itself boasts exclusive artwork with a matte finish and glossy accents highlighting the game’s iconic Twin and motorcycle imagery.

Beyond the Game: The Rise of Atomic Heart

Atomic Heart’s journey to vinyl is a testament to the game’s surprising staying power. With over 10 million players since its initial release, the game has clearly resonated with a broad audience. This success was further validated by a nomination at the 14th Hollywood Music in Media Awards, recognizing the quality of its original score. The continued release of DLCs, enriching the player experience with new stories, threats, and, of course, music, has kept the game in the spotlight.

Mundfish’s partnership with Kid Katana Records is a strategic move, tapping into the growing market for video game vinyl soundtracks. Kid Katana, a label specializing in limited-edition vinyl releases for gaming and film soundtracks, has built a strong reputation among collectors. Their previous releases, like the Atomic Heart vinyl, often sell out quickly, making this a highly sought-after item for fans.

A Tracklist Echoing the Game’s World

The tracklist itself offers a glimpse into the game’s eclectic musical influences. The inclusion of remixes of classic Soviet-era songs by artists like Alla Pugacheva and Zemlyane, alongside original compositions by Geoffrey Day, Mick Gordon, and Boogrov, perfectly captures the game’s unique blend of retro and futuristic elements.
