The second official soundtrack of Crimson Desert captures the rich atmosphere of the vast open continent of Pywel.
Featuring 42 tracks, the album brings deeper dramatic storytelling and an even richer array of beautiful melodies. From gentle, lyrical field themes and sweeping anthems to sea shanties that reimagine traditional Korean folk songs and children’s rhymes in a Western style, as well as songs of wandering bards, the album offers a diverse selection of vocal pieces. Thrilling battle and boss themes, along with expansive soundscapes, complete Pywel’s unique musical world.
