Bandai Namco announced that it released nine original soundtracks from the SoulCalibur series on multiple digital purchase and streaming platforms. People can now find songs from the weapon-based, 3D fighting game series on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music.
The lineup consists of not only of soundtracks from all six mainline numbered SoulCalibur entries released as of 2025. It also includes the 1996 progenitor PlayStation title Soul Edge—which is alternatively known outside Japan as Soul Blade—and the 2009 PSP game SoulCalibur: Broken Destiny. The ninth album added, SoulCalibur Suite – The Resonance of Souls and Swords, is an orchestral arrangement of three series tracks by Eminence Symphony Orchestra that originally came out for iTunes for Japan and the US in September 2009.
The SoulCalibur series distinguishes itself from Bandai Namco’s flagship fighting game series Tekken by featuring weapon-based combats instead of martial arts and having its storyline take place between the 16th and 17th centuries as opposed to Tekken‘s contemporary era. However, the series has seen barely any updates since content additions for SoulCalibur VI ended in December 2020, with the game’s producer Motohiro Okubo also having left Bandai Namco at the end of August 2021.
The SoulCalibur series soundtracks are now available on multiple digital music purchase and streaming platforms. The series’ latest entry, SoulCalibur VI, is readily available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and it is also playable on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X via backward compatibility.
