Hitoshi Sakimoto Celebrates 40 Years in Games With 40+ Soundtracks on Streaming

While 2026 will officially mark his 40th year in games, the team at Basiscape Records is starting the celebration early but making available 46 works on streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon, among others.

While fan-favorite soundtracks to Valkyria Chronicles, Wizardry, and Unicorn Overlord are included, there are many lesser-known RPG titles as well as three exclusive streaming launches for MyTale, World End Eclipse, and Saihate no Babel. All 46 soundtracks are available for streaming today.

“It’s hard to believe it has been 40 years since I began my journey as a composer,” reflects Sakimoto. “I’m truly grateful for the many opportunities I’ve had to create music, and for the continued support of everyone who has listened to and shared my work. Exploring the role of music in games has been a deeply fulfilling path, and every project has taught me something new. As I look ahead, I hope to keep discovering new sounds, new stories, and new ways to connect through music.”
