Classical music.


The timeless soundtracks from Baldur's Gate EE, Baldur's Gate II EE, <span class="bold">Siege of Dragonspear</span>, and Icewind Dale EE are now available for purchase, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 66% launch discount.

As a huge part of their undying charm, the soundtracks for these RPG classics deserve a place in every fan's playlist, even more so after getting enriched for the purposes of their Enhanced Editions.

- <span class="bold">Baldur's Gate EE OST</span> includes 33 of Michael Honig's haunting themes, plus 7 new ones composed by Sam Hulick.

- <span class="bold">Baldur's Gate II EE OST</span>: A massive game needs a massive soundtrack. There are 66 tracks here, composed by Michael Honig, Iron Zur, and Howard Drossin for the original game and Throne of Bhaal, plus 15 new ones provided once again by Sam Hulick.

- <span class="bold">Siege of Dragonspear OST</span> is made up of 21 tracks composed exclusively by Sam Hulick to accompany the story that bridges the gap between the events of the original BG and Shadows of Amn.

- <span class="bold">Icewind Dale EE OST</span> brings all 51 tracks composed by the legendary Jeremy Soule for this combat-heavy entry in the Forgotten Realms saga. The main theme alone will get you battle-ready in no time.



The 66% discount will last until July 4, 1PM UTC.
Incidentally, <span class="bold">Baldur's Gate EE</span>, <span class="bold">Baldur's Gate II EE</span>, and <span class="bold">Icewind Dale EE</span> are on discount right now in our grand <span class="bold">Weekly Sale Vol. 20</span>.

I was under impression these soundtrack were already available as goodies with games, or was I wrong?

Is there any difference between these and OSTs in Classic editions?

Also, forum popup.

Are the two above the same as these:
BALDUR'S GATE: SIEGE OF DRAGONSPEAR -
DIGITAL DELUXE EDITION SOUNDTRACK GOODIES
Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear soundtrack (FLAC and MP3)
Baldur's Gate: Enchanced Edition soundtrack (FLAC and MP3)

I don't want to end up buying something I already own.

Also, if you own Digital Deluxe Edition of Dragonspear, OST is included, so no need to buy it again :)

The Classics have the soundtrack included. EEs do not.

I would like to know that too. If it has not changed, when you buy the Enhanced Editions, you get a key for classic versions which all have soundtracks included. So there should be a difference. Quality perhaps?

I suppose so.
And I looked at the descriptions and there are few bonus tracks in each OST, except Dragonspear.

Well said. I'm sure that all the people who were white-knighting for Beamdog are re-thinking their position after this latest cash-grab.

They actually cost more than the classic games + the soundtrack used to cost.

The soundtrack is now more expensive than the game + the soundtrack. Amazing.

Yep. Sadly, the loss of drawing points like this that once made GOG special, are now homogenizing it into just another digital games storefront. I've noticed many, many games in the last year or so that have nothing else packaged with them. Time marches on, I guess.

Nice, they're definitely getting all their money's worth out of those licenses.

I suspect they probably need every dime. This move reeks of pure desperation.

Hopefully Beamdogs goes under before they can lay their filthy hands on more classics and ruin them too.
