As Arcane season 2 graces our screens, it's time to once again rejoice in the glorious soundtrack for the Netflix series.

Although it seems like a short run, Arcane season 2 will be the show's last instalment, with co-creator Christian Linke thankfully promising a satisfying ending for each of our characters.

He also promised a "gut-punch" finale when speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com, adding: "Let's just put it this way, we're not holding back. For any Arcane fan, it is gonna be a gut punch, that's for sure."

Co-creator Alex Yee added: "There are implications for the future, you know, in the world."

Elsewhere, there's been a lot of discussion about the show's reportedly monumental budget, with Yee recently telling GamesRadar: "You have artists who we wanted to have time to really be able to put in their touches and to have so many different disciplines in this really be able to do their best and show what they could do.

"In a lot of ways, the money is just a reflection of the amount of effort that was put into this."

But, in the background, Stray Kids, Twenty One Pilots and more will form the soundtrack to the second instalment, which will see Hailee Steinfeld's Vi and Ella Purnell's Jinx return (as we've already glimpsed in that epic trailer).

The soundtrack isn't released just yet, but it's available to pre-save – and there's a track list preview!
