Larian Studios has released the cassette tape version of the Baldur’s Gate 3 original soundtrack, as promised. The tape, featuring music from the game on both sides, also includes an exclusive synthwave version of the track “Down By The River”. In addition, it comes with a set of Baldur’s Gate 3 enamel pins. The game’s first anniversary is swiftly approaching, and the excitement for Baldur’s Gate 3 remains high.
With its extensive content and replay value, players can experience new elements even after hundreds of hours of gameplay. Now, enthusiasts can immerse themselves in the game’s soundtrack on cassette tape, as the limited edition version previously available exclusively at PAX East is now on sale for everyone. Although the $50 price tag may seem steep, it includes the unique cassette tape and the exclusive enamel pins. Furthermore, Larian has announced future updates for Baldur’s Gate 3, including crossplay and a photo mode.
The exclusive OST cassette also features a track that cannot be found online – the synthwave version of “Down By The River”, renamed “Down By The Synthwave”. This release is part of a trend where game soundtracks are being offered on cassette tape, reflecting a resurgence in the popularity of this format. With the recent availability of the Kingdom Hearts OST on cassette, it seems that a wide range of content may soon be given special releases on tape. This resurgence may bring back nostalgic memories for those who remember when cassette tapes were part of everyday life.
