This is one funky soundtrack and there are plenty of fun beats to listen to. We recommend the Grand Prix Themes and songs like Ninja College, Ramen Bowl, Scrapyard, Staff Credits & Via Dolce. Vs. Hedlok (Lv. 8) also goes hard.
Our thoughts about the ARMS soundtrack
Here’s what Nintendo Life had to say in its review:
“In terms of music, you should all have the ARMS theme tune ingrained in your consciousness by now; needless to say, the soundtrack is as appealing as the visuals.”
