Alan Walker announces Pain

Alan Walker’s new single ‘Pain’ rides a soaring hook into a high-impact, anthemic drop. The track features vocals from Jordan Shaw, a British singer-songwriter, whose contribution gives it a warmth that offsets the drop’s larger dancefloor moments. The single is out now via SNK, released 31 July 2026.

Walker’s live account carries a considerable scale of its own. His Walkerworld Tour drew over half a million fans before its final date, a Central Park performance in New York that closed out 2025, and his album Walkerworld 2.0 arrived in January of that year. At 28, he has accumulated more than 100 billion combined audio and video streams, accompanied by a global following exceeding 150 million.

Walker’s newest contribution arrives on the soundtrack for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. The game is SNK’s first mainline release in the series since 1999’s Garou: Mark of the Wolves, closing a 26-year gap and introducing a new visual style alongside a combat system called REV. He joined that soundtrack initiative in 2025, contributing its launch single alongside SORANA.

“Following Mind of A Warrior, it was an absolute honor to contribute to the Fatal Fury Season 2 album,” Walker stated.
