UnReal World soundtrack
UnReal World's audio landscapes rely mostly on a large variety of environmental and incidental sound effects, but there is also some official music present in the game, created by the developers. This short article provides a handy overview.
All of the official music files can be found in any of the current release's audio folder. Most of them begin with "music_".
Current soundtrack
Music tracks you can hear in the current releases of the game.
| Order | Track | Length | File name | Notes |

Previously used tracks
These are tracks that are no longer used in the latest releases, but were heard in some slightly older releases of the game.
| Order | Track | Length | File name | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Intro | 1:03 | intro | The older, more ambient and sound effects laden version of the opening theme. Unlike the current intro/main theme, it did not loop. |
| 2 | Outro | 2:21 | outro | An energetic and somewhat tougher sounding song, almost like a part-folk, part-metal piece. |
| 3 | Death theme | 1:28 | music_death | Yes, this mournful theme played whenever your player character was unfortunate enough to perish. :-) The lyrics are at least partly in Finnish. |
Trailer music
The music for the 2014 and 2016 official trailers reuses the music from the cheery Hololiloija! music video, created by Sami and Erkka in autumn 2013. (And very effectivelly so, as it's a fun tune.)
