Wroclaw, Poland – 19th March 2024: Gamemusic Records label is pleased to announce that pre-orders for the Baldur’s Gate 3 vinyl albums are now available in both Standard and Deluxe editions. Gamemusic Records team joined forces Larian Studios and the composer of the score, Borislav Slavov, to deliver this outstanding musical experience to you in a way that does justice to both the game and the soundtrack itself: all remastered for vinyl and full of new original artwork.

Pre-order now: Standard Edition & Deluxe Edition.

The Standard Edition includes three 12-inch vinyl discs (3x 180-gram LP) packed in a gatefold jacket with antistatic sleeves. Each side of the cover is decorated with meticulously designed artwork by Magdalena Katańska – a trusted, long-time associate of the label. The inside presents a stunning panoramic painting. Ripe with references to the world and characters from the game, it is a delight for fans of the game and its music alike. Discs are made in mix of black and purple, invoking the association to Mind Flayers – dreaded enemies from the Forgotten Realms universe.

The limited Deluxe Edition, available only during the pre-order campaign, changes the inner sleeves to six original paintings of Origin Characters, paying homage to beloved heroes from the game. Based on the idea of duality, each disc in this edition also presents a different mix of colours, all coherently representing the pairings, relations, and depth of those characters. Deluxe Edition is presented as a magnetic closure box set, resembling an ancient grimoire. A booklet featuring the piano score of one of the game’s famous tracks, as well as extended liner notes, is also included.

Preorders are available as of today via the Gamemusic Records Online Store and Larian Merch Store. The Standard Edition will remain available for sale, with the limited Deluxe Edition being available exclusively during the pre-order period. The worldwide shipping of both versions is estimated to begin in the Summer of 2024. Previous releases from Gamemusic Records (such as Heroes of Might & Magic III OST or Frostpunk Complete OST) were praised among game fans and audiophiles alike, all selling out quickly and becoming a prized collector’s item – also thanks to careful mastering of the audio material by the label’s seasoned sound engineer, Matthias Adloff, who worked also on this album.
