Japanese Breakfast's just-released new album, Jubilee, and memoir, Crying in H Mart, aren't all she's been busy working on. She also did the soundtrack for a new video game, Sable, which has announced its release date. It comes out September 23 on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC ,and here's the synopsis:
Embark on a unique and unforgettable journey and guide Sable through her Gliding; a rite of passage that will take her across vast deserts and mesmerizing landscapes, capped by the remains of spaceships and ancient wonders.
Watch the game's latest trailer, soundtracked by "Better The Mask," a beautiful string-laden piano ballad from Japanese Breakfast, below.
Michelle Zauner also appeared on the recent virtual Summer Game Fest to perform another song from the game, "Glider." Watch that performance below, as well.
In other video game-related Japanese Breakfast-related news, the trailer for the latest expansion pack for The Sims 4, "Cottage Living," features a version of Jubilee single "Be Sweet," with the vocals in Simlish. Watch that below too.
Japanese Breakfast embark on a North American tour starting in July. See all dates below.
