2023 was a massive year for gaming, and one of the biggest titles of the lot was The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. The game was the long-awaited sequel to Breath of the Wild, and it delivered on all fronts, including delivering a powerful story focused heavily on Princess Zelda and giving fans an incredible soundtrack to listen to while they built whatever they want via the new game mechanics. You know where this is going, right? Nintendo Music decided that THIS was the next game to put into its massive music catalogue.
Oh, but Tears of the Kingdom didn’t get one or two or ten tracks put into the music library. Instead, all 344 tracks are now available for you to listen to! Plus, as you’ll see below, they have a rather legendary set of composers that helped make this OST even more special:
The Tears of the Kingdom soundtrack was composed by a team of veteran and newer Nintendo composers: – Hajime Wakai (look up his work, it's a long list)- Manaka Kataoka (New Leaf, Spirit Tracks, BOTW)- Maasa Miyoshi (Ring Fit)- Masato Ohashi (first major game)- Tsukasa Usui (first major game)

So, yeah, Nintendo Music continues to surprise, and we should all be grateful for what it’s offering.
