Japanese label Cassetron are releasing the arcade and Mega Drive soundtracks for Atomic Runner Chelnov (now simply as Atomic Runner on Mega Drive) on vinyl.

The release will be a single LP, although as of now there are currently no details on what it and its packaging will look like.

It is priced at ¥4950 and is an open preorder until October 31, 2023. It is scheduled to release around December 20, 2023 and can currently be preordered via Disk Union, which requires a proxy for addresses outside of Japan.
