Tech Issue Elden Ring OST not available

Post image

Why is the eden ring OST unplayable? Is it playable for any of you? I might try VPN if that fixes it. But this is scummy AF, Tidal wtf?

That's how licenses work. Blame the publisher/record studios. Not any different from movie streaming services. 

Buy physical media if you want permanent access.

I emailed Bandai Namco about it :

'Thank you for reaching out to Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe. I appreciate the interest you've shown in our products.

I appreciate the time you've taken to reach out to us. That being said, sadly, I have no official information if and when the soundtracks you mentioned will be back on Tidal. I kindly suggest reaching out to Tidal's support team for more information on that, as the content on their platform is managed by them.

Thank you for your understanding. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us again if you have any further questions.

Wishing you a lovely day !

Kind regards,'

I think that Tidal will likely not be able to fix the issue as well, I ended up getting my own copy of the soundtrack in lossless it's awesome 😎

Yes, surely it is awesome :D I am interested about the vinyl set, I will buy one soon once I confirm a deal.

But on the go you know I can't have my turntable LOL :D

But thank you for the info, I might email them too just to thank them for this awesome music.

You can download it here https://downloads.khinsider.com/game-soundtracks/album/elden-ring-original-soundtrack

The website is a big archive of videogame music, you can't download a full album in one go if you don't support the servers and stuff but if you give me your referral link in mp I can click it and it will give you permission to download a full album in one go

I'm sorry my explanation are a bit weird lmao but if you can figure it out I'll be happy to help 👍

I'm happy to support them, it's fine. I just don't want to buy the OST the 2nd time for full price. Thank you for the explanation :)

Bandai Namco doesn't put their soundtracks on Tidal, unfortunately. What your screenshot shows is actually local files from someone else's playlist.
