Trivia[]
- "Bring Em Down" and "We Bring an Arsenal's appearances in this game are notable for being Lostprophets's last appearance in a video game soundtrack (excluding Rock Band exports), as less than two months after the game's release, frontman Ian Watkins would be accused, and would later be convicted, of multiple sexual offences of minors, infants and animals, leading to their disbandment.
- While listening to Horizon Rocks, after Festival Update Phoenix Fox can mention Muse. This happens only on Russian version. In English version he instead mentions Howler. This means Muse was probably at early consideration for Horizon Rocks at some point.
- the first 5 seconds of "Let Me Go (ShyFX and Benny Page Remix)" loops when driving around the festival when the radio is turned off.
