It will be released digitally by Invada and Lakeshore on 20th October, with CD, vinyl and cassette editions to follow.
An “upside down interdimensional-blue” variant will be available 22nd December in the USA via Lakeshore.
Invada will release 3 additional variants for the rest of the world on 12th January: “crystal clear” vinyl (with blue and white splatter), a mail-order exclusive “purple crystal” vinyl (with white splatter), and standard black.
Speaking of the soundtrack, Dixon and Stein of power synth band S U R V I V E said: “In Season 2 we’re introducing new styles of composition, while still revisiting old themes when appropriate… We’ve created new elements that are necessary to support the story, but still want to remain true to the sound of Season 1.”
