1 Information
During the production of Urban Assault, many soundtracks and in-game cinematics were created for the game. In the final version, there are total 5 soundtracks and 11 cinematics (12 with Metropolis Dawn) in Urban Assault.
NOTE: The movie data file of the official Urban Assault trailer is not included in the game CD, but it was available in other press materials including the downloads at the official Microsoft Urban Assault website long time ago.
2 Soundtracks
Urban Assault CD uses a mixed-mode format, and therefore Track 1 is the data track that is reserved for sound data in the engine. All soundtracks were composed by the main sound designer of the game, Sylvius Lack.
- Track 2 ('Insane') - Mission Briefing Track
- Track 3 ('Shell') - Shell (Game Menu, Debriefing) Track
- Track 4 ('Night City') - Ghorkov Track
- Track 5 ('Mykophobia') - Mykonian Track
- Track 6 ('Taerkastika') - Taerkasten Track
Each single-player and multiplayer level is assigned with a soundtrack that loops throughout the gameplay, with additional parameters for different minimal and maximal 'break' periods.

French and Japanese versions of UA trailers may have been also produced in the past.
- The famous composer of X-Files theme, Mark Snow, had a prominent role in the production of the Urban Assault Intro movie. In the interview, he claimed Urban Assault marked his first involvement in the production of a video game.
