The album Music From SteamWorld Heist II features 15 new original full-length songs written and performed just for the game! That's right! It's a full album-sized album of brand new songs! But wait there's more! The album is also a two-disc album and comes with special instrumental versions of every song on the second disc! 30 tracks in total!
For this album, we've got songs by Rabbit, Zer0, and The Spine with a quasi-nautical theme and of course a plethora of tasty vocal harmonies! We also had Lacey Johnson (our newest live concert backing musician and singer) contribute her instrument and vocal abilities to some of the songs on the album too!
Autographed CD Versions feature autographs from Rabbit, Zer0, The Spine, and Lacey Johnson on the right inside panel of the cd digipak

FAQ
Q: Do I need to have played SteamWorld Heist I to enjoy SteamWorld Heist II?
A: Nope! You can enjoy the sequel without having played the first one. It's perfect for newcomers! You'll have more backstory and get a few nods to the first game if you're already familiar with it though!
Q: Do I need to play SteamWorld Heist II to enjoy the album? I don't like video games.
A: Nope! The album can be enjoyed all on it's own, you won't be lost, and it also won't spoil any of the game if you listen to it before playing the game.
Q: Where can I find your music in the game?
A: The band's songs will pipe in through radios and jukeboxes around the game world in between missions and also be played by the band themselves! The songs also get added into rotation as you hear new ones, with songs you've encountered playing randomly at different locations. There are even songs that play after defeating certain enemies in the game or during key story moments!
Q: A whole second disc of Instrumental versions of every song! So karaoke versions?
A: Not quite! We made instrumental versions of all 15 new songs as a few were used different parts of the game. We decided it only made sense to make the album as complete as we could, so we're including all the instrumental versions on a second disc on the album.
Q: Can I play as the Steam Powered Giraffe robots in the game?
A: We made sure to ask the developers during development as it's been a requested feature since the first game, but it didn't make sense for the game's story for our characters to be recruitable to your crew, so no the SPG robots are not playable. However, you will see and interact with Rabbit, Zer0, and The Spine multiple times throughout the game (even more than the first game), and see us playing on stages across the game :)
