The soundtrack was available with pre-order editions of the game, so it may be difficult to find at this point, but I’m sure you can find the soundtrack CD online through various outlets. Ive beaten the game, and so im not worried about spoilers by the names of the songs.
#DARK SOULS 3 OST HOW TO#
Problem is, i dont know how to access it, or how to use it. It also says that the ost is installed, and Ive confirmed that it is by installing it again. It shows up under the DLC for dark souls 3, along with the season pass. While it’s hard to capture the same magic the third time in, Kitamura and Sakuraba have done a fantastic job with this installment, and I’m looking forward to hearing what each of them do next. I preordered the game through steam, and as you may know, you get the game ost. There’s the tense and bombastic “Pontiff Sulyvahn,” the beautiful and graceful “Dancer of the Boreal Valley,” the deep brass tones of “Old Demon King,” the small hints of beauty hidden behind a deep brooding male choir in “Oceiros, The Consumed King,” the slow and contemplative “Abyss Watchers,” the wonderful dark waltz of “Yhorm the Giant”, and the epic and tragic “Lorian.” Finally, the grandiose and elegant “Soul of Cinder” sports some references to themes of the past, which is a nice touch, and the ending themes are melancholy and somber, and not at all triumphant.įans of Dark Souls music will appreciate this score just as they did the others. “Vordt of the Boreal Valley” is somewhat of a death march with chugging bass, “Curse -Rotted Greatword-,” is sweeping and frightening with its gurgling choir and sense of corruption, “Crystal Sages” is appropriately wise and methodical, and “Deacons of the Deep” sports a massive and regal organ. Finally, “Firelink Shrine” is bleak and desolate with droning bass, a female choral section, and a soundscape that doesn’t feel at all safe.Īs far as the boss themes go (always the highlight), “Iudex Gundyr” doesn’t disappoint with its slow build, powerful strings, rustic harpsichord, and call and response male and female choir. The titular “Dark Souls III” sports foreboding bell tolls and choir before exploding into dark and tragic strings with beautiful harmonies, while “Prologue” brings in the guttural male choir and buzzing strings that have been used throughout he series. The opening “Premonition” is rightfully somber and smoldering, giving a hint at what’s ahead. That lends to score a pretty action-heavy lean, but the variety of moods presented does prevent much of the fatigue you’d expect.
#DARK SOULS 3 OST SERIES#
Fans of the series should know the drill by now, no music outside of key hub areas and boss battles. So I was excited to see Yuka Kitamura and Motoi Sakuraba teaming up once again for the third, and presumably final, installment. The Dark Souls II soundtrack was one of my favorites of 2014.
