Bandai Namco Europe launches YouTube channel for its game soundtracks

Bandai Namco Europe has launched a new YouTube channel dedicated to the original soundtracks for some of its biggest franchises.

The channel, Bandai Namco Game Music, allows EMEA fans to listen to the original game soundtracks of the following franchises for free: Elden Ring, Tekken, Dark Souls, Little Nightmares, Soulcalibur, Tales of Arise, The Dark Pictures Anthology, and Park Beyond.

The channel features thousands of tracks, including deep cuts from early in the Tekken series, which have been been officially released digitally for the first time. Bandai says that more tracks are to come, but didn’t say which franchises may be next to be included in the game music library.

“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,” said Anthony Macaré, chief marketing and sales officer at Bandai Namco Europe.

“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.”

Elden Ring‘s first expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, was announced in February, but a release date and further details have yet to be confirmed.
