YOASOBI will release their 4th EP "THE BOOK for," featuring the collaboration song "Orion" with the game "Overwatch," on June 26 (Fri). The collaboration with "Overwatch" began on July 1 (Wed). Furthermore, on July 4 (Sat), the collaboration music video for the song "Orion" was released on YouTube.

"Orion" is a song written based on the short novel "The Fall of a Sparrow," which depicts Genji, Hanzo, and Kiriko against the backdrop of "Tokyo," the new setting for "Overwatch." This work portrays the three characters confronting their own feelings as they retrace their memories. The released music video expresses this world view with dynamic visuals. It is a visually stunning work that delicately depicts the past and conflicts of Genji, Hanzo, and Kiriko, while also featuring thrilling action scenes.

This song is included in the 4th EP "THE BOOK for," and a special edition with a collaboration jacket with "Overwatch" is also available for the US-limited analog record of the same EP. The in-game collaboration is available for a limited time until July 21 (Tue) Japan time. Various content incorporating YOASOBI's music, world view, and visuals will appear in the game. In addition to Hanzo, Genji, and Kiriko, players can enjoy special performances unique to this collaboration, such as six limited collaboration skins inspired by Mizuki, Juno, and Anran, and a dance emote using the song "Orion."

Furthermore, this collaboration depicts the growth and struggles of Kiriko, Genji, and Hanzo, the conflict and separation of brothers, and their destinies that intersect once again, integrating music, story, and visuals. We hope you will experience this special collaboration where YOASOBI's song "Orion," spun from the original novel, merges with the world of "Overwatch."
