The music in the game is highly praised for its ability to enhance the various environments, contributing significantly to the overall experience. Players appreciate the quality of the soundtrack, with some expressing interest in a potential soundtrack release. The music complements the gameplay dynamics, which shift between slower, more powerful shooting and faster-paced movement.
