In this special 210th Sound of Play, Leah Haydu (@Improbable42) and Thomas Quillfeldt (@TQuillfeldt) journey through the Drakengard / NieR series, from the earliest entry on the PS2 to NieR:Automata.
What we aim to bring you with Sound of Play is a diverse sample of some of our favourite pieces from the many air-punching, spine-tingling, tear-jerking and grin-inducing videogame soundtracks we’ve heard over the years.
