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)
Every Supergiant game should be on this list,
Man, good riddance from Hades is out of this world. The first time I got to her place I was mesmerized and stood there till I heard the whole song a few times. It’s hard to explain to someone who never experienced it themselves but I don’t think any game made me stand still for such a long time simply listening to the song. It’s such an unique experience of mine that I will never forget.
It’s not my normal thing, but Doom’s soundtrack really gets the juices flowing and fits beautifully with fast paced frantic gameplay.
Edit: 2016 Mick Gordon
If you like DOOM’s OST, have you looked at ULTRAKILL? It’s similarly stupid high energy (though maybe less metal and more breakcore) for a similarly stupidly fast pace bloody shooter set in Hell
Hotline Miami. God damn, so good.
Hotline Miami is great. Have you tried Katana Zero? My favorite ost from it is probably Chinatown and Sneaky driver
I totally agree. I actually played the game after hearing the soundtrack. I had to see what sort of game would have music this sick. Careful listening to it while driving though. You’ll get busted for speeding.
- 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)
Chrono Trigger, of course. Some legendary tracks in there that transcend their limitations. The Deadbolt OST, Katana ZERO’s OST. Nier Automata, Street Fighter V.
Oblivion and Skyrim as well. Really there are too many excellent game soundtracks to possibly list in a comment
Came here to say Skyrim. God that soundtrack along with the gorgeous visuals from the game was breathtaking.
Cyberpunk 2077 Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West Zelda Breath of the Wild Metal Gear Series
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.
Lots of good answers in this thread. Thank you for wording this in a way that allows me to post more than one answer, lol. I’ll name a few I didn’t see reading through here:
- Talos Principle
- System Shock remake
- Metroid Prime
- FF VI pixel remaster (all the pixel master OSTs are great, but VI got the most love)
Besides many of the ones others have listed, I really enjoy a lot of the music from Katamari Damacy.

Life is Strange soundtrack. That is, including all the licensed songs.
Was so good, got me into playing guitar.Senran kagura games tend to have really great soundtracks (PS4). Same goes for Blazblue and Guilty Gear series.
Final Fantasy XIV
