For a decade now, FromSoftware's Bloodborne has haunted the dreams of gamers who dared to traverse the cursed streets of Yharnam. While fans have long clamored for a remake, remaster, or even a PC port, the game's 10th anniversary brings something different—but no less thrilling for collectors and music lovers. Laced Records has unveiled a premium vinyl soundtrack collection that captures the haunting, gothic beauty of the game's score.
The Bloodborne 10th Anniversary Vol. I & II Exclusive Edition X3LP is a three-vinyl set that includes the original soundtracks for both Bloodborne and its acclaimed expansion, The Old Hunters. Priced at $98, the collection has already sold out, though Laced Records may consider a second pressing if demand persists. The set also features four remastered tracks previously unavailable on vinyl, plus five remastered boss cues from the DLC, including Nobuyoshi Suzuki's "Ludwig, The Holy Blade" and Yuka Kitamura's "Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower." These tracks were recorded at the legendary Abbey Road Studios and AIR Studios in London, ensuring audiophile-grade quality.
Beyond the music, the package includes a Caryll Runes slipmat housed in a deluxe lift-off lid box. Both the slipmat and collector's box are available separately for those who missed the full set. This release is a must-have for anyone who still hears boss music in their sleep or regularly dreams of Yharnam's moonlit streets.
A Decade of Suffering and Success
When Bloodborne launched in March 2015, it quickly became a defining title for the PlayStation 4. By April 2015, it had sold over 1 million copies worldwide, and by September of that year, it surpassed 2 million, with Sony noting sales exceeded expectations. Critically, the game earned a 92 Metascore on Metacritic, cementing its status as one of the best-reviewed exclusives on the platform. Long-term estimates suggest the game has sold roughly 9 million copies as of early 2022, a testament to its enduring appeal.
The game's punishing difficulty and atmospheric world-building have inspired a devoted fanbase that continues to create mods, fan art, and even tabletop adaptations. While this vinyl release isn't the remake or sequel many hoped for, it's a fitting tribute to the game's legacy—and a reminder of why Bloodborne remains a touchstone for action RPGs.
For those who can't get enough of the hunt, this soundtrack is the next best thing to a return to Yharnam. And who knows? Maybe the next anniversary will bring the remaster fans have been dreaming of. Until then, let the music carry you back to the nightmare.
