‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’ Original Soundtrack
It’s been a year of Zelda at our house.
One year ago today, I purchased a Nintendo Switch, and made The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild the first game in our library. That first Friday night I stayed up until the Switch’s battery ran out, playing this wonderful adventure game.
Since that adventure started one year ago, I’ve been a bit of a Zelda collection hound, grabbing books and figures and merchandise where I can find them. The music, though, has been elusive.
And BoTW’s soundtrack is amazing – one of my favorites ever. Finally, Nintendo released a deluxe package, five discs strong, in the spring. The kicker? It’s only available in Japan right now.
Not that that stopped me.
I’ve been playing the “Hateno Village theme” nonstop for a year now, but now I own a copy – along with all the other great tracks from the game (some standouts include Tarrey Town, Waterside, Riding at Night, and any of the other village themes) in this beautiful collector’s package. After loading the tracks into iTunes, the set makes a nice edition to my Zelda-theme bookshelf.
The set even comes with a little playbutton: like a mini MP3 player that holds the Hyrule Field theme from each Legend of Zelda title. A nice bonus.
With this soundtrack set, it’ll be another year filled with great Zelda tunes at our house.
