Added comparison table for all three confirmed launch music collaborations
The Version 1.0 launch of Neverness to Everness includes three confirmed licensed music collaborations: tracks from Persona 5 Royal, tracks from Persona 5: The Phantom X, and tracks from Tower of Fantasy. All three sets play through the in-car radio when driving vehicles around Hethereau, and through the Walkman portable music player when exploring on foot.
Both collaborations are available at launch with no extra unlock requirement; tracks are added to the player's radio playlist automatically once the in-game music feature is unlocked. The collaboration was first revealed during the April 18, 2026 Launch Preview Special Program and went live alongside global launch on April 29, 2026.
The three confirmed collaborations cover the high-energy and contemplative ends of the launch playlist together. The table below compares them at a glance:

Eleven tracks total are featured from across the Persona 5 series. Two come from the original Persona 5 Royal soundtrack and nine come from Persona 5: The Phantom X. The combined eleven-track set forms the largest cross-publisher Persona music inclusion in a non-Atlus title to date.

Eight tracks from the Tower of Fantasy soundtrack are featured. The selection covers signature themes from across that game's content cycles, ranging from the opening track "Chocolate" to the late-game-area theme "Mirafleur Hall." The Tower of Fantasy crossover doubles as a callback for players who carried over from that game.

The in-car radio is the first listening interface for collaboration tracks. While driving any of the city's vehicles, players can open the radio menu and switch between curated playlists. Each track plays through the vehicle's audio system with positional fade as the camera moves around the car. Players unlock additional radio stations through main story progression and City Tycoon engagement. Tracks can also be skipped, paused, and shuffled through the radio interface, and the system remembers the last station played when re-entering a vehicle.
The Walkman is a portable music player introduced for Version 1.0. It lets players listen to the same licensed tracks while exploring Hethereau on foot, separating music playback from vehicle interactions. The Walkman is treated as a flavor accessory, with on-screen visual cues showing the player wearing earbuds when active. Music persists across district transitions and can be paused, shuffled, or skipped through the same interface used for the in-car radio.
All three confirmed collaborations were available immediately at server open on April 29, 2026 across all four global server regions (Asia, America, Europe, SEA) and on the Mainland China client which had already launched on April 23, 2026. The tracks are permanent additions to the in-game music library rather than time-limited crossovers.
Both regional clients ship with the same track set; there is no Mainland China exclusive or global exclusive track at launch. Future tracks released through patch updates are expected to follow the same parity expectation unless the developer announces otherwise.
Mix the three collaborations for variety. Shuffle Phantom X tracks with Royal tracks and Tower of Fantasy tracks to cover both ends of the energy spectrum across a single drive.
Match track type to activity. Use atmospheric tracks (Beneath the Mask -rain-, Star Shine, Mirafleur Hall) for Affinity Bond moments and downtime; use battle tracks (Wake Up Your Hero, Show Stealer, Life Will Change) for combat and high-speed driving.
Watch for additional tracks. The launch eighteen are confirmed in-game. Additional collaboration tracks may be added across post-launch patches; check the in-game music library after each Patch Notes update.
