Yes, they made a pachislot (pachinko slot machine) version of Asura's Wrath, and yes, it got its own original soundtrack in 2015. The sheer absurdity of cramming CyberConnect2's rage-fueled mythological brawler into a gambling machine is matched only by how much effort went into making this score legitimately intense.

This is a slot machine soundtrack that goes unreasonably hard. "END IS NEAR" and "NEVER STOP" carry the same apocalyptic energy that made the original game's music so compelling. "Who Do You Think You Are!" channels Asura's signature fury, while "Asura Transformation" and "Yasha Aura Explosion" bring the key character moments to the reels.
"Defeat Augus Hoshiarashi" references one of the original game's best boss fights. The gambling-specific tracks like "Jackpot," "Mithra Prayer Roulette," and "Ringbreaker Freeze" blend pachislot mechanics with dramatic orchestration.
The stage-based tracks reveal the machine's structure. "The World Between (Omen Stage)," "Rage Zone (Premonition Stage)," and "Dohatsuten Zone" escalate tension as odds shift in your favor. "Infinite Desire (High Probability Stage)" plays when you're on a hot streak, and it genuinely feels triumphant.
It's a bizarre artifact of Japan's pachinko industry, but taken on its own merits, the music slaps harder than Asura punching a planet-sized finger.
