The latest Sand Land trailer for the upcoming anime video game features an iconic song that fits the aesthetic of the franchise rather well. The game is set to release on April 26.
As you may be able to recognize from the video, the recent Sand Land trailer is set to the 1999 Darude song “Sandstorm.” In addition to its name lining up with that of Sand Land, the song is also well-known for its online meme status.

What is Sand Land about?
“In the far future, war has destroyed the entire Earth, leaving only a barren wasteland where the supply of water is controlled by the greedy king. In search of a long-lost lake, Sheriff Rao asked the king of the demons for help…and got the king’s son, Beelzebub, and his assistant, Thief. Together the unlikely trio sets off across the desert, facing dragons, bandits and the deadliest foe of all… the King’s army itself! It’s travel adventure and tank action in this new story from Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball Z!” the official synopsis from Viz Media states.
