Can’t wait for this, the music in the demo was increbile

Dead Cells devs making this is interesting

Awesome review Jesse! another great game for 2026…what a crazy year man. Loved the demo so I am very excited to play the full game.

That being said you are a bit unfair to the SOTN soundtrack because it’s much more than you described in the review. I played SOTN last year, I have no nostalgia for it and I thought that the OST was excellent. I liked the theme that played in the demo though and going by your impressions I expect the full soundtrack to be very good…which is needed nowadays since a lot of games this year (as awesome and fun as they were) were a little disappointing music wise IMO.

I talked about the style, not the quality. It was more old-school funky in a unique way. This is non-stop classic orchestra mixed with modern guitars

There are some tracks like that in SOTN but there are also some great atmospheric/dark themes as well, either way I misunderstood what you wrote since you talked purely about the style/sound of SOTN’s OST so it’s my fault. :+1:

The bottom line is that the music of the game is great and that’s very good news.

A few reviews:

Looks great. I’m glad Dead Cells guys are back. It’s been hard for them to find a new project, but it seems they nailed it.
