Materia Music has partnered up with Konami for one of the biggest collections of gaming music you'll see, as we're getting a massive Castlevania album. The release will be called Music from Castlevania – Black & Red, which will be a compilation of several original video game soundtracks in a single collection, as you'll have 46 vinyl LPs spanning every game in the franchise made between 1986-2010. So no, it isn't a complete collection, as a couple of Lords of Shadow titles are missing, but the vast majority of the franchise is still in a single collection. One that will cost you a pretty penny, as it's currently being sold for $550 and is being limited to 500 units. We have more info below as it's up for pre-order now with a Q1 2025 release window.
