December 17, 2009 Patch (WAR! Update)

• This song was added as main menu music.

Trivia

• This song is in the same key of E Major as the main theme, Playing With Danger, Intruder Alert, and Haunted Fortress 2. Its guitar part bears similarities to the ones featured across these songs as well.
• The guitar melody bears similarities to Dick Dale's Misirlou, one of the most influential guitar pieces for its respective style of playing.
