The Nintendo The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild vinyl soundtrack has been announced as an oversized box set for fans of the franchise to add to their vinyl collection. The soundtrack box set consists of eight LPs that come in either a limited-edition colored vinyl or black vinyl option, which feature all 130 tracks that have been remastered. The records have been split into themes to mirror how the player would progress through the game rather than following a static arrangement for a more immersive listening experience.
The Nintendo The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild vinyl soundtrack is priced at $195, while the double LP collection features 34 tracks priced at $50. The soundtracks are available now for preorder with shipping slated to take place June 19, 2026.
