The Halo series not only redefined the first-person shooter market, but it opened a new pathway for video game soundtracks. Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori crafted the soundtrack for each of the first three entries in the Halo series, offering unique sounds with each score.
The first entry, Halo: Combat Evolved, combined orchestral cues with unique instruments like military snares. Halo 2 possibly had one of the most anticipated launches ever, with a sweeping new sound that ended up in the Billboard 200. And finally, Halo 3 brought a 60-piece orchestra and 24-voice choir to further push the ever-evolving sound of Halo.
To celebrate these iconic soundtracks, the all-new Halo Original Trilogy Soundtrack 8LP Vinyl Box Set is available to pre-order at IGN Store. Do not miss out on this ultimate collector's item!
This box set features 83 tracks from the first three Halo games, each remastered specially for vinyl and pressed onto eight black heavyweight LPs. Each game will have a unique wide-spined outer sleeve, which features printed inner sleeves of the original Halo game logos. A collector's edition box will feature silver laminate wrap and a debossed Halo logo, acting as the ultimate display item.
Additionally, original sleeve artwork has been created by Art Director and Concept Artist Isaac Hannaford, who served as former Lead Concept Artist and contributor to Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo Reach. If you're a fan of the Halo series and its beloved soundtrack, this is the ultimate item for your record collection.
The Halo Original Trilogy 8LP Soundtrack Vinyl Box Set will ship out beginning in April 2025. Pre-orders for both editions are now open on IGN Store, so don't miss your chance to grab this unique collector's item!
