Don’t fear the Reapers.

Acid Nerve, Devolver Digital and Laced Records have formed a commission to release the sensational soundtrack to Death’s Door on vinyl.

 

The Zelda-inspired dungeon delver is the smash hit follow-up to Mark Foster and David Fenn’s boss-focused debut Titan Souls. Sure to be included on many Game of the Year lists, Death’s Door won Best Indie Game at The Golden Joystick Awards, and is nominated for Best Independent Game at The Game Awards 2021.

 

David Fenn’s score helps to fill players with hope and resolve rather than overwhelm them with aggression and bombast. The varied soundtrack is stuffed with exhilarating boss cues, more meditative and mysterious tracks, and quirky ditties. Every track is full of rich instrumentation, including layered percussion, piano, pan-pipes, guitar, and orchestral and choral elements.

 

It’s a triumph both in-game and as a standalone listen, and another win for indie developer-composers creating soundtracks that perfectly resonate with their game’s visual and narrative aesthetics
