System of a Down frontman Serj Tankian will be featured in an upcoming video game called Metal: Hellsinger.

Described as a "rhythm FPS," Metal: Hellsinger finds players shooting enemies to the the beat of original music sung by a variety of big-name metal artists. Tankian, for example, is contributing a song called "No Tomorrow."

"Your ability to shoot on the beat will directly impact both the damage you deal and how awesome the music sounds," the game's description reads. "The more in sync you are with the rhythm, the more intense the music will become and the more destruction you will cause."

Other artists taking part include Trivium's Matt Heafy, Lamb of God's Randy Blythe, Jinjer's Tatiana Shmailyuk, Refused's Dennis Lyxzén and Arch Enemy's Alissa White-Gluz.

You can watch a trailer featuring a clip of Tankian's song streaming now on YouTube.

Metal: Hellsinger is set to be released later this year on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
