SABATON have released a new music video!

Swedish heavy metal giants have unveiled a brand new standalone single and music video, Yamato, created in partnership with World of Warships and released via Better Noise Music. The track arrives following their 2025 album Legends, which marked the band’s first record for the label.

The release marks the band’s second major collaboration with developer Wargaming after the hugely popular Bismarck. Alongside the new song, a SABATON‑branded Yamato is now available in World of Warships, complete with special in‑game items and voice lines recorded by Joakim Brodén and Pär Sundström.

Filmed in Belgrade, Serbia, the music video depicts SABATON aboard the battleship in its final stand, performing as the vessel is overwhelmed by waves and chaos.

Speaking about the track, vocalist Joakim Brodén states, “battleships are interesting and naval stories have, from time to time, been part of the SABATON lore. Bismarck was an exciting story for us to share and a fan favourite, and Yamato is sort of a follow-up to that song. Our former guitarist, Tommy, wrote this song while he was still in the band. We only ‘Thobbefied’ it after guitar duties were returned to Thobbe!”

Bassist Pär Sundström adds, “Bismarck was such an exciting song but it was never part of an album, and it felt that it was missing something. We always wanted to follow up on that story. Over the years, countless fans have asked us to write a song about Yamato, and we knew that that would be a natural continuation of what we started with Bismarck. We knew we wanted this song to have a totally different sound, and when Tommy was writing the music for this, we felt we had the appropriate, powerful song for this story. Once again, we are collaborating with World of Warships, and since our worlds are so close, it just feels so natural to continue this great partnership. Together, we once again created a legendary music video!”
