SEGA has revealed the official ending theme song for Sonic Frontiers by ONE OK ROCK, Vandalize which will be played when players roll the credits screen for the title. The song Vandalize is a collaborative effort between SEGA and ONE OK ROCK that reflects the vast gameplay environment and the high-speed action that you can expect from Sonic Frontiers when it launches this November.
You can check out a sample of the soundtrack below along with some new gameplay footage of the game as well:
ONE OK ROCK’s lead vocalist, Taka commented:
We partnered with SEGA on Sonic Frontiers because we relate to Sonic and how he’s taken on the world after getting his start in Japan. We are based in the US and have performed in Europe, Asia and South America, so we are extremely happy to be able to work with the world-renowned Sonic.
This collaborative song, Vandalize, is very upbeat and has some Japanese-inspired melodies while also sounding like a ONE OK ROCK song. It also matches the cool image of Sonic and his speed when he’s running, so please enjoy Vandalize along with Sonic as he speeds across Sonic Frontiers.
ONE OK ROCK was formed back in Tokyo in 2005 and comprises Taka (vocals), Toru (guitar), Tomoya (drums), and Ryota (bass). Today, ONE OK ROCK is one of Japan’s hottest exports with dozens of international gold and platinum certifications and billions of streams.

Their 2017 album AMBITIONS marked their debut on the Billboard 200 and the 2019 album Eye of the Shot managed to secure the #2 spot on the Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart. The band has received honors at the Rock Sound Awards and the Alternative Press Music Awards. Their most famous singles include ‘Save Yourself’ and ‘Let Me Let You Go’.
