The iconic boss fights and endless frustrations of the Dark Souls games may be two of the components that the franchise is best remembered for, but the haunting music that shaped each moment throughout the games also deserves plenty of recognition. With a new special Vinyl Trilogy set, gamers who fell in love with the brutal games can add the music to their collection.

Announced earlier in the week by Bandai Namco, the music of the Dark Souls games will be available for fans to purchase very soon. The trailer that's included above gives a small taste of the music that'll be included from the three main Dark Souls games as well as a tentative fall release date for the collection that'll be available later on through the Bandai Namco store.

Below is a brief description of what collectors can hope for when purchasing the special vinyl set. According to the details provided for the product, sales will be limited to only a few thousand units.

This exclusive numbered collection – only 2,000 copies are available - gathered in a 9-vinyl collector box – includes more than 5 hours of sound of the best quality. Composed by Motoi Sakuraba and Yuka Kitamura, Dark Souls orchestral themes will make you dive into the sinister, dark and dramatic world of the series.

The complete Dark Souls I, Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III original soundtracks, captured in a premium sound, will give the listener a truly immersive experience and remind each Dark Souls fan their intense boss fights and the best (and worst) moments of their deadly journeys. This high quality trilogy box should be treasured and treated like a collector's piece.

Fully aware of the difficult reputation that the games have built up over the years, even the description of the product itself takes into account how hard the games can be by mentioning how the music might make players relive their worst Dark Souls moments, musical compositions that were played on repeat as players got smacked down by massive bosses over and over again.

While there's no specific release date or pricing details that have been revealed yet for the item, more information is likely to come soon regarding preorders and other information. You might also consider the double LP versions of the Dark Souls soundtracks that are available as ThinkGeek exclusives.
