Every Supergiant game should be on this list,
GTA Vice City
NieR:Automata
FFVII (especially the 10 minute FFVII remake of One-Winged Angel)
Cyberpunk 2077 had some good ones. I’m digging I Really Want to Stay at Your House
Hades
Kingdom Hearts (Wave of Darkness is pretty great)
- Battleblock Theater (goat main menu track)
- Hades (amazing combat music)
- Hollow Knight (most atmospheric)
- Undertale + Deltarune (great range, captures a lot of emotions throughout the story)
The legend of Zelda always had the most iconic themes (personal favorite is Dragonroost island from Wind waker, but they really all have some amazing music).
I also listen to the Chrono Trigger and Octopath traveler OSTs on my free time.
TotK is absolutely insane tho, it’s better than many Hollywood productions
Bloodborne has an amazing soundtrack. Here’s an example of one of the epic songs:
I swear every fromsoft game has a 10/10 soundtrack
Besides many of the ones others have listed, I really enjoy a lot of the music from Katamari Damacy.

That’s a hard banger right there. Thanks for sharing !
Witcher 3. Surprised I haven’t seen it yet. The vase game is totally the best in my ears, especially the Skellige soundtrack but the expansions are also a blast!
For licensed tracks, Burnout 3 Takedown wins it for me. Great driving music (obvs) and generally just a blast of uplifting pop punk.
Final Fantasy ix and X.
Their vibes just fit both the games respected themes and narratives.
Besaid Island from x is one of my all time favourites. Roses of red from ix a close second.
Bastion and Transistor also come to mind from Super Giant Games.
Maybe this answer is cheating, but Smash Bros Ultimate has the best soundtrack of all time. It’s got over 1000 tracks, including some of the most recognizable video games music of all time, and some amazing remixes.
