Out April 17th; Game-Inspired Video for New Single “Raptor Squad Attack” Out Now

German power metal heroes VICTORIUS are back with their brand-new single
“Raptor Squad Attack”, out now via PERCEPTION – A Division of Reigning
Phoenix Music. 

The single paves the way for their upcoming studio album, entitled World War
Dinosaur, that is set for release on April 17, 2026. With World War Dinosaur,
VICTORIUS unleash their most powerful and cinematic chapter yet. The holy war between dinosaurs and ninjas enters its next stage — louder, larger, and more explosive than ever before! Across twelve new tracks, forged in cosmic steel and powered by pure imagination, the band invites you into a universe where power metal meets Saturday-morning-cartoon chaos.

“With World War Dinosaur, we went deeper into the theme of the holy dino war and added a stronger military edge”; the band comments. “It’s the most epic and hymn- like album we’ve ever written 100% Victorius, but bigger, tighter, and more intense. We’ve never worked this hard on an album before. ‘Only more is more’ and this time,
we went all in!”

Accompanied by a vibrant music video inspired by classic arcade games,
VICTORIUS; new single launches listeners straight into a pixel-powered space-metal adventure.

“Raptor Squad Attack” delivers high-energy power metal at full throttle; soaring
melodies, powerful riffs, and a chorus made to sing along to. It’s classic VICTORIUS: fast, melodic, and cinematic. Pure “Power Metal From Outer Space” for fans of DRAGONFORCE, GLORYHAMMER, and SABATON.

The band adds: “The mission for “Raptor Squad Attack’” was clear: write a song that unites all the trademarks of VICTORIUS while keeping it straight to the point – no distractions! Our allies will love it… and so will our enemies, haha!”
