Skyward Sword: Official Soundtrack Announced

Well, it's happening again. Japan is getting an amazing soundtrack collection for the latest Zelda release, in this case The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD. But the 187 tracks also include the Wii title screen music, so everything is there.

There are two editions of the soundtrack, where the Limited Edition (as shown above) comes with a small music box. You can find all the info and more pictures on NintendoEverything and Nintendo of Japan.

This looks to be on par with the beautiful soundtrack collection for Breath of the Wild, which got released in 2018. It's a similar box and the same number of discs, while the Limited Edition also comes with a musical extra. I like the little music box more, though.

If I still had anything that played music CDs, other than my 16 year old Xbox, then I would probably try to get my hands on this. But since this only gets released in Japan, it's quite some effort for just a pretty box. Let's see...

Play-Asia is a great importing source for soundtracks like these.

Good to hear, because I actually did order it there yesterday. Let's see how it goes.

Good luck! I've never had any issues with them other than the sheer cost of the import. Got the JP-only soundtracks to Breath of the Wild, Zelda Symphony, and Link's Awakening, for example, from their store.
