Music has been a core pillar of Black Desert’s immersive experience since its inception. The anniversary vinyl set pays tribute to that legacy, offering fans an opportunity to revisit their in-game memories through the iconic compositions that have accompanied them on their adventures.
The album features a handpicked selection of tracks composed by Hwiman Ryu and his team, spanning a wide range of genres including jazz, ethnic fusion and alternative rock. Each piece reflects the emotional depth and cultural vibrancy of the Black Desert universe.
“I believe vinyl is a journey through time, through music,” said Hwiman Ryu, Audio Director at Pearl Abyss. “Since it’s common to listen to one side in its entirety, each track builds on the next, complementing each other and deepening the emotional experience. When you listen to the Black Desert soundtrack on vinyl, we hope it will stir something in your adventuring heart and bring about unforgettable memories.”
In addition to the music, the album’s richly designed sleeves are collectible artworks in themselves, making the 10th anniversary set a must-have for audiophiles and long-time fans alike.
This exclusive vinyl set will be available worldwide through Black Screen Records and select retailers, including the IGN Store, Light in the Attic, Amazon, and other music and online outlets. It will retail at €55/$65 and ship in August.
