The band's new song "Castle of Glass," from their latest album "Living Things," will also feature in-game footage from "Warfighter" in its official music video, the band said in a comment.

This partnership, announced just days after 2K Games announced a partnership with Jay-Z as an executive producer for "NBA 2K13" and Activision revealed that Trent Reznor would be playing a similar role to Linkin Park as a composer for "Call of Duty: Black Ops 2," is further sign of the expanding relationship between videogames and music as the two industries continue to overlap. It is also not the first time that Linkin Park itself has contributed work to videogames, or even "Medal of Honor." For 2010's release of "Medal of Honor," EA used two of the band's recent songs-"The New Divide" and "The Catalyst" in trailers promoting the game. The official music video for "The Catalyst," which was directed by the band's DJ Joe Hahn, featured both in-game footage and live-action scenes emulating the "Medal of Honor" wartime aesthetic.
