Nintendo has announced that the soundtrack for *The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* will receive a vinyl release. This move comes as a surprise, given that the video game company rarely puts its original soundtracks (OSTs) on physical media outside of Japan.
The release is part of a new experiment by Nintendo to gauge global audiences’ appetite for physical soundtrack editions. The *Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* Limited Edition vinyl was revealed earlier today.
The soundtrack will be available in two versions: a 2LP set featuring 34 tracks and an extensive 8LP box set containing 130 tracks. Each vinyl LP is adorned with the iconic Hylian Crest and comes housed in a sleeve showcasing artwork from the 2017 video game.
Speaking to *Variety*, Bill Trinen, Nintendo of America’s VP of Player & Product Experience, explained that the company aims to measure interest in physical media releases beyond the Japanese market with this launch.
The *Breath of the Wild* soundtrack is now available for pre-order and will officially release on June 19, 2026. Pricing is set at $49.99 for the 2LP set and $194.99 for the 8LP box set.
