The Best Video Game Music of 2024

[Darashiva]

Just like last year, I want to start tracking the best video game music that this year has on offer. Often by the end of the year many of the best scores end up getting overlooked or forgotten because the game was released early in the year or just wasn't otherwise very good. That's what's often happened to me at least, so to keep as many of the upcoming excellent soundtracks in mind as possible, I will once again start putting them into a single, hopefully useful chart where everyone can see them and have a listen.

I will add to the list on my own, but also based on everyone else's recommendations, so if you come across a great video game soundtrack at any point during this year, let me and others know in this thread and maybe leave a link to some of your favourite tracks from that score as well. All of them will be added to the list as they come up. This way, come the end of the year and the award season, it'll be easier to check back on all of them.

Game	Composer(s)	Recommended listening
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown	Mentrix Gareth Coker	The Darkest of Souls Main Theme The Imprisoned God
Tekken 8	Yusuke Yamauchi Akitaka Tohyama Shogo Nomura Yoshihito Yano Go Shiina Shinji Hosoe	Volcanic Bomb Into the Stratosphere Fallen Destiny 1st
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth	Mitsuto Suzuki Masashi Hamauzu	Gongaga Region Materia Guardian
