Steam Awards Soundtrack Nomination

Rejects!

Do you find yourself rocking your head back and forth uncontrollably as you decimate untold hordes of pox-riddled heretics to Jesper Kyd’s grotesquely catchy bangers? You’re not alone!

Take the chance to show your appreciation to the legendary composer Jesper Kyd by nominating Darktide for the 2023 Steam Awards in the category - Best Soundtrack

But wait! There’s more… In the spirit of celebrating the glorious soundtrack: We’re giving away 3 OST Vinyls to 3 lucky winners!

Want to get your grimy hands on an Emperor-blessed vinyl? Send us a gameplay clip from one of your sessions where you think the music hits just right in funny, cool, or interesting ways. Edits are allowed and we don’t have any hard requirements apart from the former, so get creative!

The winners will be chosen by devs from various disciplines. The competition ends on Dec 8 and the winners will be contacted shortly following that.

Upload your submission on Instagram*, Twitter or TikTok using: #DarktideSoundtrack or in the appropriate thread on the Fatshark Forums (this one). We may use your gameplay clips on social media or our launcher to highlight the competition before it ends, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ve won!

*Notice: Instagram automatically blocked #darktidesoundtrack for reasons unknown to us. Please use either Twitter, TikTok or the Forums to upload your clips instead - we can see them there.

For all the arguments on the forum, I’m sure we all agree that Darktide music goes hard!

When that big ol beautiful Beast of Nurgle comes around the corner on Mercantile, the boss track kicks in and its soo gooooood.

I’m butt dancing most games with the boss having the best time. Music is king in games and movies!

If I enjoyed Darktide more, I’d have considered it. But as the game is right now… not really.

You guys rework the crafting system and I vote for everything you want me to.

Although everything else is average, music and art are great

With pleasure.

The soundtrack is awesome and tracks like “Emperor of Mankind” or “Imperium Advance” check all the boxes.

I consider the Soundtracks from Mechanicus and Darktide to be the most 40K soundtracks in 40K game history: at least for the games I’ve played :wink:

So vote is out!

Honestly the reason why I changed my vote to another game. The soundtrack is the only thing that delivered day one, but I refuse to give them positive PR while they still have so much stuff that is either missing, broken or straight up scummy MTX bs.

Soundtrack team did a really great job, unfortunately there are too many bugged abilities, talents, blessings, and weapons for Darktide to earn any awards. Maybe next year if they make the skill trees work (and generally have more interesting synergies between subtrees).
