The official soundtracks for several of Bandai Namco’s video game releases, including titles like Elden Ring and TEKKEN, are coming to their newly-formed YouTube channel for fans to enjoy.
Thousands of video game fans across the globe love to listen to their favourite soundtracks while on the go, driving around, or doing whatever else floats their boat. Sometimes these compilations of all of the music from those titles can be expensive or hard to find, and while some take advantage of that situation for monetary gains, Bandai Namco has decided to create their own dedicated YouTube channel in order to put all of the soundtracks from their biggest properties into the ether for everyone’s listening pleasure—absolutely free!
“Music is one of the core components that can turn a videogame into an epic journey that will live on in the memories of players forever. Opening this Game Music channel is how we get to share the most memorable soundtracks from our games with the greatest number and expand our IPs outside of the videogame world. We wanted our fans to be able to bring those adventures into their daily lives and discover new stories,” said Anthony Macaré, Chief Marketing and Sales Officer at Bandai Namco Europe, with regard to the launch of the Bandai Namco Game Music YouTube channel.
Bandai Namco fans can now listen to the Original Game Soundtracks of the following franchises on the Bandai Namco Game Music YouTube channel for free:
- CODE VEIN
- DARK SOULS
- ELDEN RING
- Little Nightmares
- SOULCALIBUR
- Tales of Arise
- TEKKEN
- The Dark Pictures Anthology
- Park Beyond
The channel offers more than a thousand iconic tracks from their award-winning titles over the last several years, with more to come in the future. While this is an incredibly cool way for the publisher to simply let fans have access to the music their fans have grown to love, it’s something that most in the industry probably would rather sell in a digital deluxe edition bundle, so kudos to them for doing a really awesome thing for their players!
